short track 123 - 1/5/08 at 10:23 PM

Hello All

I'm looking for some photos of the inlet ports for x20xev Ecotec engine.

Or better still if any one has a standard inlet manifold off one i have some bear tokens waiting.

Regards
Jason

i've got a photo of a manifold flange someone made up for me. i'll put it on in a sec, its a huge picture, but its not very clear small. so thats my excuse for not resizing

its not very good, hance why i was asking you about them before
this one's made of steel, its a bit twisted and the holes don't line up

i did thanks yeah. i hadn't had a chance to reply, you see i've got this steel one already, which isn't great, its a bit twisted and could work, but i was trying to think of how to go ahead, because really i'm after an alloy one. but you mentioned one offs can cost a bit more, so i was having a think about what to reply with just now. i do know that liam mccaffrey was looking for one too though

I have had a think about it and i am going to go ahead and make a batch of steel one's any way.

ah cool!
i'm going to use my one as a test one first of all, then when you've got the ally ones, i'll get one off you and do it properly

obviously the XE's a popular engine, i think the ecotec will be too. can't think of any real reason why not.
my engine's oout a 1998 astra i think.

yeah i was after one too this is a pic of the standard flange next to my gsxr 750 tb's. I actually did a 3d cad model of the x20xev manifold flange but the laptop hard drive went south

I've got one, the trouble is i'm in Bristol and they are quite big so postage will be quite a lot, i suppose i could cut it so i leave about 1-2" of pipe left on the flange and send that, what do you think?
