Location: Guildford | Pretty much all Metro's used the same manifold, the early 1.0 engine that was not high compression used a differnt one much more like the Mini's but I have never seen one of these outside the haynes manual.
The MG Metro manifold is identicle too as far as fitting to the head and downpipes its just got a seperate inlet and exhause so the inlet can be Alloy and heated/cooled.
Dont try to cut the inlet and exhaust apart its not possible, you need 2 manifolds and cut the inlet off one and the exhaust off the other to gain pretty much nothing on a road car, an LCB is only £30 new and you can get a better alloy inlet off ebay for next to nothing, the standard MG inlet is rubbish compared to an aftermarket one but then you need a K&N too as the airbox wont fit. |
