Default Anyone know where I can get inlet manifold adaptors?

Need to swap over the inlet manifolds on my engine as looms are different. Been told I will need adaptors to fit and to look on line so far nothing has come up. Anyone know where I can get some?

cheers

AS performance would be a good bet. MB developments as well, although they tend to mainly do newage sti stuff.

I will try and give them a call tomorrow. See if they can help. I have someone hopefully making me a bracket to make a blob eye throttle body fit as the plugs are the same.

97 UK2000 is the car and the engine is a ej207 lump. The manifolds are different. In was told you could buy adaptors to make the old manifold fit the ej207 block. Trying another route which will hopefully work.

normal folks fit their manifold to the new engine to ensure the loom still fits, its what I did with a classic wrx when I fit the engine you listed,

the engine came out another classic. When I asked a local forum to see about putting it into a bugeye they said it wouldn't fit being it was in a classic. The heads went on my old engine so I thought it would be a straight swap unfortunately it isn't. Would have been if I put it in a bugeye.

Newage engine will fit straightforward, but you need to use current classic manifold for easy fitment and just buy wiring looms/adaptors for avcs etc, depending what ecu you running and what injectors you want to run.
