Lee did mine so maybe he can tell you, does the nova pipe not fit on the engine? Also theres a return hose on the back of the inlet near the throttle body that needs to go back into the header tank.

Have a look at my thread for some pics of it.

i need to use the 2 lyr plastic pipe cos theres a hose that comes of it at the alternator end back into a housing on the side of the head, i just cant think of a way to get the hose from the header to the plastic pipe
