okay, i have a new ford capri (well not new, but new to me)
and was thinking about learning a bit about engine tuning, what does what etc, by actually doing it first hand.

anyway, i was wondering would

this fit onto a capri's engine and mate with the exhaust going under the car, or would i have to have one made.
probably need someone with good knowledge of the capri's engine bay (mk3 btw) its for the right engine (pinto)

Is yours a 1.6 pinto, or 2-litre?

If its a 1.6, i doubt it'll fit.

all pinto cylinder heads are exactly the same dimension wise, the only difference being the diameter of the inlet valves, the 4-branch will fit for sure f it is in fact capri item,

if you're running a 1600 pinto then to be honest i'd ditch it and get a 2.0 for the money you won't get a better power gain

if you're running a 2.0, use 2.8i v6 pistons and a 2.0efi sierra head with a well set up 38DGAS carb from a 3.0 then you should have plenty fun

 

It will as said fit ok.
I too agree go for 2.0 to start with, I had a few 2.1(v6 pistons) in sierra's all auto's, the last with a 32/26 got around 135 bhp out of it.
You will NOT get anything approaching 15/20bhp gain from this manifold, expect around 5/8 if your lucky, but it will alow it to rev a lot better.
I had a HT head(injection) on mine was way better for it, used to get 38/42 mpg as well.
Don't bother with a 2.8 transplant as they are not particularly good, a tuned pinto will be way better/faster/easier to tune.
