Everybody knows the '62-'91 jeep grand wagoneer is a true classic, the original suv, none of this nasty lurching wheezing landrover rubbish .

Just got my car back from Ant after a rework of my conversion due to a problem with the manifold . Two years on and Ant still done the work under the guarantee the man is true gentlemen and i would reccomend anybody who wants a conversion to go to him.
My mates h27 could not keep up with me to a ton
Well here is some pics




thanks again Ant

What problem did you have with the manifold?
Have you not upped the boost yet?

The problem was we think the weight of the turbo because it was mounted low down cracked the manifold.chu346 wrote:What problem did you have with the manifold?

NP Chris, she's running just over 10psi now BTW 
@ Chu, the original was bottom mounted and shock cooling from water spray whilst driving would seem the main culprit, the manifold was far from FUBAR but it was indeed time for a rethink and remake.
Did well though
