thanks for your help mate

 

who made the top half of the manifold for you??

 

me mate im a welder .

 

anymore pics mate? is that tig or mig welding

 

tig,


its not finished yet i need a throttle body to finish it

 

very nice and neet welding,are you going to make more to sell?

 

not really but if someone wanted one i would do, are you building a zetec i saw your cvh up for sale ??

 

in the middle of building a zetec,ive got a rover inlet coming so it was just a thought at the mo,have you put trupets in the manifold?

 

no but could do ,i didnt run them in my last one on my cvh and that was fine , and there isnt any in the top half of the rover one .what sort of power you going for??

 

somewere around 330-350,whats the fuel rail off? you got a price for one of those manifolds,ill have the rover bottom half in a few days

 

the fuel rail is off a vauxhall but i dont no what one jamie gave me it ,would do one for £160 posted with a fuel rail fitted and your own throttle body

 

yeah mate that sounds good,what about a fiesta rst rail? what size bodie you going for? what part of liverpool you from?

 

im on the wirrel, you cant use the fiesta one the injectors come off at an angle the 2.0l mondeo/focus one fits i think,dont no what body im going to use yet going to my local brakers at the weekend to see what i can find thats bigger the the frst one

 

i used to live in brombough with my girlfriend as her family from there,back in wales now, ill sort a fuel rail out an get back to you,how long will it take to make?

 

just a few days mate ,are you in north wales or south?

 

north mate 45mins from you

can use the rover rail modified to take a fiesta turbo fuel pressure regulator, the modificaction is only a case of drilling and tapping 2 new mounting holes for the FPR.

The 2 new mounting holes can be seen in the photo below



all assembled it looks just like this

 

anymore progress on the manifold mate

 

couldnt find a throttle body that i liked the look of so just going to usev the frst one

 

Go and shop in the states. YOu find some nice TB's there for a low price

 

let me know mate,so i can see the finished product

 

Heres a picture of smitsturbo rover based inlet.

very nice,what fuel rail is that?

 

The fuel rail is a modified ST170 unit.

S.

 

how much are they si?

 

There is about £40 of fittings on it plus aroung 2 hours to mod plus the cost a a second hand fuel rail.

S.

 

i meant the manifold mate

 

What rover is that fuel rail off? All the fuel rails i've found are plastic and crap!!!

 

the one that come on my rover manifold was plastic

 

the manifold is the one thats fitted to the rover 620i and 420i, non the turbo model rovers, there was about 3 or 4 of them in our local breakers at the time so i grabbed them and sold em on ebay for a tidy sum

 

Problem solved.. Thanks...

 

mines metal

 

i could mod yours like the one in the pic then if you wanted to use that

 

ok mate,you finished yours yet?
