AAN inlet on ABY

[sal_s2]

Go for it I say

[rj scotty]

Surely the most cost effective solution?

[LHD_Kid]

Nice, that one was an RS2 one...!

You still have issues with rad - especially if you want to keep air con, etc...

Looks cool too...

That one Sal posted is way more than cut & flipped if you look at it, a lot of work in there to do a neat & tody job. Even harder if you want to keep your AC condenser. Sure its the cheapest option

Andy yes mate I got one off Danny at ADI. It was like a Derrin Brown thing, ony minute I was just chatting next he's got my credit card and there's a manifold in my boot He's a good lad though, he looked after me

you can move the throttlebody to the front of the AAN intake and still use the same aby radiator left next the intake manifold
i have done this in my b2,i think they have the same engineroom (picture)
it's a cheaper setup as wagner in my opinion
the AAN water manifold is different than the aby one
i rebuild the AAN water manifold like picture
if you mount a AAN intake on the engine the connection from the aby watermanifold of the upper radiator hose touches the intake

[martinjs]

I modded my original water manifold.

[andy10v]

With access to the appropriate tig equipment what are people thoughts on the cutting and flipping the ABY manifold?

Martinws did it (and now has an AAN intake manifold fitted instead)





PS pump under the exhaust manifold where the AC goes.

What did you do for power steering pump?

[quattro-nick]

i made a custom bracket for alternator and ps pump and placed it very low on the engine because my ic stands above the crankshaft pulley

[GazzaG60]

so really it all depends on fab skills as to the cost. it aint no cheaper if you gotta get it all fabbed and it wont flow as well eitherway.

[rj scotty]

Whats the going rate for the wagner?

Maybe somebody knows what is a distance between holes for fuel rail mounting on AAN inlet manifold ?
And that distance (maybe) is the same on 3B, ABY, ADU, Wagner inlet manifolds ?

I had to weld two tabs on aby fuel rail to fit aan inlet manifold
