looks like usual cheap ebay crap. Wont fit IMO.

Would be interested in a pukka 318is manifold if anyone has any suggestions.

In the states the late 318i had a M42 engine only.

Then the E36 'is' has the M42/M44 engine which that manifold would fit onto.

But the production dates quoted match the 318iS not the 318i.. I'm assuming they mayed a typo ages ago and haven't corrected.

18bhp my todger.
