what car. I used the standard B32 manifold with a few mods to fit in an M3. cut No6 off and replaced it with another No4/5(can't remember which) and rejoined at the collector. had to have the pipe sleeved so I could twist it the few mm to get it exact and not stressed. Had a flat bar made up and drilled so it matched the stud pattern on the cylinder head,I was then able to bolt the manifold to the bar outside the car so as to get it accurate. the collector box was also reshaped very slightly so as to clear the xmember when the rest of the system was joined to it.
