That is the right pipe Steve. Doug just woke me up from my afternoon kip to come on here
What plenum do you have a hart?
yep a hart one i think the probs i had with fitting maybe because i have esc cos inlet trumpets that i think they are longer and thats why it was so close to the abs block/pipes as ive read others have said theres went on fine
I started to fit mine the other day what an arse to do lol. I couldent get the cover on with the trumpet section still on the engine so had to remove that and fit it all as one as the abs pipes were in the way! but even then i had to mod the holes with my die grinder to get them to fit over the studs in the head (so it could fit on all in one piece). Also i wasent very impressed with the quality of the plenum the m6x1mm bolts they sent were to long plus it was like screwing them into butter! i had to heli coil all 10!. Finaly got it on then it was a total arse to get throttle body on with the bracket they supplyed also had the cut all 4 throttle body bolts down as the hole were no deep enough in the new plunum. I will have to move the power stearing bottle too as its now in the way of the throttle body and will have to mod the power stearing pump too so ill mod it too take a bango bolt there is no way ill get a hose over the standard tail thats on the pump with the throttle body on and i will have to have my intercooler modded aswell but its on and will be finished next week
Exactly the same as mine - the holes for the throttle are shite and at least one is deffo gonna need a coil and i had to mod my pump it's the best way i think and still use the std hose
One of the more worrying issues with mine is the hole in the front lug for the rail i think the hole is drilled a mm too high so the first injector isn't covered as much as the others but i bought mine off Dave when he broke the Escos so it must be fine
theres a selection of m18 ones on ebay with the hose fitting thats where im getting mine from but need to measure the hose size when im at work on monday
I carnt see how you get a pipe on the standard tail. With my manifold on there is about 1 - 2 cm gap from the throttle body to the top of the tail the p/stearing pipe gos over. When the pipe is on it it must be up against the manifold

All can think is where im useing a small turbo escort t/b it must be a lot bigger as i dont think id get that pipe on mine it would hit the t/b butter fly which works the other way round
steve i didnt know it was that end you was having trouble with, ring alan or roy and tell them what the problem is, they will be more than happy to help one way or the other
So you have got your outlet pointing towards the front of the car.
Did you also move your PAS bottle towards the front as well ?
Steve
Yes mate i have loads of room so it just face's forward, could sit at any angle - i haven't had to move my tank - mines a Spec R and sit's a little further back, the smaller pipe of the two from the tank is very slightly in the way when full throttle but thats due to it having no permanent bend in it, i'm able to put a U clip over it and screw to the inner leg which still gives me enough curve without cutting off fluid at all and clearing the throttle linkage
I think this is about your only option with your TB

Im not happy with the tank end of the pipe Ronnie. I just wanted to see what others have done.
It is very soft, I would say most of the threads need looking at on my Hart, I don't know if its for that reason but who ever built mine up for Dave, M.A.D maybe but all bolts between the trumpet and plenum were silicone in too

So whats next on your shopping list? and how long before you bight the bullet and build the 200 block up?
The 200 block will be built up if this one dies. I will have new pistons with valve cutouts a bigger inlet cam and some more porting on the exhaust side of the head.
