inlet manifold query

[gazz]

ok need help about an inlet manifold for 20xe running t45's.

i called sbd today and they said there is 2 types, one with a 7 degree engine and one being a vertical engine.

now which one do i need?
i gather it would be the vertical but i want to get other opinions..
thanx in advance

Iirc the 7deg one is for a nova, as for some reason a xe sits on a 7deg slant when mounted in a nova.
The XE head inlet ports are also on an angle instead of verticle.

So its probably to make the carbs sit horizontal, if you had a vertical inlet the carbs would sit at an angle(which wont work because of the fuel bowl level)
