Hmm my concern would be bonnet clearance... but who'd mind a bonnet cut out if you're running a monster turbo

Expensive, very expensive. And looks like flange is upside down, at least in picture. Whit that manifold turbo come down and back, not up and front like it is told to.
Sorry my bad english.

I was just wondering. It's expensive indeed.
There are original turboheaders fit the 360 withouth cutting etc? I thought Ali did use one?
However, it doesn't make sense for me, because it dont have - and want - a 360

The manifold in the pictures has a 16v flange.
Pricey, yes. A ProTurbo one is a useful amount cheaper and still good quality...but avoid the cheap SS Autochrome ones on eBay like the plague...they really are rubbish.
