The manifold porting you did seems to be a lot of mucking about (only my thoughts) but that said is a very effective and cheap mod. Also keeps it looking super stock. Got a pic of the bay to see what you've done re piping? Just cause I'm curious 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think I mentioned that I actually Ground a few spots on the top half too thin, this showed up when I did a water pressure test on it, so I got a friend to weld the spots where it was too thin, it only needed to be tacked from the inside then I would just grind it down again, but he miss understood what I wanted, so started welding up all the ribs in the plenum!!! Look closely, you'll see the shiny bitsQuite annoying but I ground most of it down it it looked better, but it is still obvious, anyway, today I got some cast alloy coloured spray pain, sprayed it first, then sprinkles some Matt black over it aswell and it came up pretty good, if you look closely you can tell, but to the untrained eye it looks stock Will an b series NA coil cover fit our covers? I want it looking a little neater, but can't bring myself to spend the money on the billet ones 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
