I dont get it Steve. The manifold in the picture isn't the same as the one fitted to the engine? The bend on n°4 is different.

It is, Bruce. It's just the angle of the photo that makes it look different.

HThat’s nice - did you take the car there to get it done or are they off the shelf?

I quite like such sporty things (isn't that a John Barlowe inlet manifold??) and I don't really don't want to be the Killjoy but have you or haven't you fitted a heat shield??? If not you might consider one as the exhaust manifold now seems to be quite a nice 'rechaud' for the fuel……

No, no heat shield. This manifold replace one that's been in place since I built the car in 2013 and that has since done 5 full seasons of Hill Climbs and Sprints, usually double entered (the equivalent of 55 events in total), together with a fair bit of road mileage each year with no fuel issues so far.

Be interesting to see what the difference is from an improved manifold.
And I can see your lambda sensor boss, so you're getting serious....
