I'm wondering if anyone knows of somewhere that can make a custom inlet manifold for my c20let? I have a side exit exhaust manifold (right hand side) and there will be no room for the intercooler pipe work if I use the manifold I already have :( so the pipework will need to come from the left side.

so can anyone point me in the right direction?


cheers

Best one I've seen is Matthews mate, reputable ford builders iirc

Contact dewis motorsport on migweb mate

If you google his name it brings back some examples of his work

Is that Matthew172 Graeme? And thanks I'll look into both places :)


i was also thinking I could use my inlet manifold but get a pipe bent at 180 degrees so it's now facing the correct way, would this be ok/ possible? I've got a pic of my manifold when it was fitted to a Corsa looks tight for space but I've removed the bulkhead bit on my nova so should make room for it? Also a pic of my manifold when fitted to another corsa looks rather packed!

do you think it will be ok to bend the pipework so it's going to the left or get a new manifold?

If it's is the top one in red a good faby should be able to swop ends on that I'd think

Yeah Matthew 172 is nice and compact and not big and curvey like the nortech ones
