Gransport - Euro or US manifolds?

[JonW]

All,

From reading around a little bit it seems to be a bit random as to which of these I might have on my car.... so sorry to ask what may be a silly question, but what is the best way to find out?

Reason for asking is it’s my birthday coming up, and my present to myself may be one of these

Or one of these

Have a look under your car. If the manifold to squish pipe flange is round and has two bolts, it’s US spec and if it is rectangular with 4 bolts then you have Euro spec

Mine be the 4 bolt type. Was hoping to get before Italy but logistics, service and some other drama’s at home mean I just can’t fit it in. So will be put on back burner until next year.

 

[D Walker]

If yours had just come back from Emblem. They will no doubt have pics from under car.

 

[JonW]

Thanks both - I’m sure I could just ask Myles what type I need, but am trying to maintain at least a pretence of know what I’m doing, and knowing my way around an engine!

And just to be sure, 4 bolts means Euro spec, which means this sports cats?

You can save yourself a lot of time and effort by just buying my car. She'll be up for sale soon....

 

[JonW]

I like my car... and thought you had sold already?

 

[MAF260]

No, haven't had time to even think about it. I'll get her prepped for sale first - professional detail and ceramic coating, wheels refurbed etc. and then see who wants to be the next custodian. I've owned her almost 7 years, the longest I've owned any car!

WTF indeed.
You have been very quiet the last year or so though.

Would you return the exhaust to stock before you sell, or sell it as modified?

Good question....like what you did there

Trust me getting those manifolds in and out you do not do for fun.
What I have learnt in life is you never go backwards.

Amen to that!

 

[rockits]

Except when you spin in a TVR!

 

[JonW]

And the answer is....



I have US spec manifolds...
