..maybe I will look at a manifold Shaun ???
What a good idea...the US delivered inlet manifold seems to have had a little more thought put into flow...and, maybe UK could produce Herbold under licence?
There is probably a market for an accurately fitting/well flowed exhaust manifold if the construction of the maniflow is as poor as stated...stainless?...
While we are on induction....any advantage to adapting HIF6s?

Good question. When I first got my C/GT 2 years ago I dug up a set of HIF6s (from a Volvo I believe) that I had in my parts stash. I rebuilt them and got the linkage parts but never got around to researching jet needles. So they sit on the shelf.
I'd love to here some suggestions on jet needles and I'll give them a try.
I prefer HIF to HS so I'd welcome the switch.

Don't have the SU book, but would imagine that HS6 equivalent jets are likely to work well...
Back on manifolding, Downton are still active, maybe they too still have an MGC capability...in their archives! :-)
