XFORCED Member 42 Member For: 14y 3m 19d Posted 03/06/12 04:10 AM Share Posted 03/06/12 04:10 AM I am currently doing an engine conversion and am trying to find out the differences between a BA/BF turbo manifold compared to the FG turbo manifold, the turbo is currently fowling on the strut tower of my XF with a BF manifold on it. I was told that the FG manifold is different but not sure how. If the FG turbo manifold is closer mounted to the engine compared to a BF one then I may have a simple solution other wise im going to need a high mount.Any pictures, advice will be appreciatedThisGoing into this 2 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/80438-differences-between-babf-and-fg-turbo-manifold/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
