Still not enough room to make it as easy as the standard manifoldOriginally Posted by Puntoboy
Certainly looks easier to fit than the POTR one. More space for example, between pipes 2 and 3 to get to the blasted nut!

Well durrrr. That's kinda obvious.

i thought i would state the obvious just to help. And the POTR isnt that hard to fit, aslong as you use the right bolts
what fiat owner uses the right bolts??
You don't use bolts on the manifold Stud and nuts

well to be precise its a combination of studs and nuts and allen key bolts so as to get in the gaps easier, as getting a socket or spanner is the gaps in pretty hard.
That's not how Fiat did it thoughOriginally Posted by GTBen
But that's what I mean, if you use stud and nuts, as Fiat did, on the manifold, that nut between pipes 2 and 3 is a pig to get to as you say. Looks easier to get to on the Solid-fab version.

still dont think there will be enough room for a socket.
Be interesting to see though
That's meant to be a performance manifold?
That section on the other manifold by the OP is a million times better, clear as night and day. Very suprised the POTR one is so poorly finished as that sort of 'bodge' is more than detremental to flow.
