Default Inlet manifold which is best s1 or s2?

Which inlet manifold would be best on my 2.0 zvh? also is it worth matching the fannyfold to the head?

the s1 manifold is better if your gonna do work on it as it splits so makes it easier to get inside

yeh i want advise on matching it to the head, i know i need to drill and fit dowels so it goes on in the same place every time i have a basic idea there, the head is already ported, also as you say it splits, so would like to know what areas to work on etc
Any advice will be strongly appreciated.

Both wont be ideal.

2.0zvh with a 1600 head and MFi manifold and management system...


The 1600 engine runs out of puff due to the head. Fitting a larger cc bottom end isnt going to help.

Be better fitting an EFi management system, at least you will get the most out of the engine.
