You can use your manifold

But use the black top zetec inlet instead of a cvh item, and rather than using a unreliable adaptor plate get the head redrilled and taped to fit the cvh unit

Or a much better idea is sell your stuff and get a frs mk1 turbo unit and manifold for a bolt on conversion and use the black top inlet
