    I think I might still have an ABY manifold you can badge up, which is the closest physically to the RS2 mani. I'll need to have a look in the shed. I used to have 2 spares and an RS2 one as well but that one went on a damaged Avant
    PM me if interested. You'd need to change the metal boost pipe along the cam cover to the later one as the TB will be in a different position and the hose won't reach. Or make a spacer as in my coupe project thread.
    IM flow is not really a massive issue on these old cars up to about 500 HP, you turn up the boost you get more flow.. Reversing the manifold and losing 2M of pipe will make a lot more difference! That's what I eventually did with my car which is now running the Wagner reverse IM and IC kit.

      2M of pipe…. That's a lot! Thanks for that. I will PM you. I also have an AAN manifold but not planning on using it.

        Hi bud, just had a look, seem like I sold the last one. The only thing I have is a new Wagner EM.

            Does the rs2/s2 inlet manifold clear the dizzy on an rr?

              It's tight but can be done.
              IIRC on my 3B I had to chop a corner off the lower ground bolt point and maybe a little off the dizzy cap. Then make a bracket to support the FPR.
              Should be pics in my project thread.

                    It sure does! The RS2/S2 inlet manifold was designed to fit most RR engines without any clearance issues. It's definitely worth a try.

                      The correct answer is in post #21 above.
