Default Manifold to Front entry or not.

Is it worth the Hassle?

Ph1.5 Manifold. I believe this is the easiest one to do it with. Can you simply just flip it round? or is it best to weld a new throttle body on the opposite side?

Phase 1.5 is the most straight forward to swap, no modifications to the manifold its self are needed gains are small when compared to most.

Uni-Link,

Is it just a case of flipping it round on the Phase 1.5 Manifold? then modding the Altenator etc.

That makes it sound easy its not and its time consuming but yes it can be done with few mods to the manifold.

Take a look here for more info.
