Whilst I've got a spare manifold that I'm currently smoothing I've been looking at other stuff to do at the same time.

Things I've already looked at are deleting the evap circuit which I'm still not sure about and a DIY parallel fuel rail conversion. At the same time I've been thinking about how easy it would be to rotate the inlet and this is what I think but am I being to simplistic

• Flip the inlet and it will bolt up on to the existing bolt holes.
• Find somewhere new to mount the header tank.
• Make a new tensioner for the alternator.
• Modify the FMIC pipework.
• Re-route the servo vacuum pipework to the new take-off location.
• Re-route the throttle cable over the engine in more of an 'S' than the current 'U' shape.

Obviously a remap will be required but all of that is in hand anyway - so is it really that simple or have I missed something?

 

Yep that easy

 

I might have go and grind some more lugs off the spare inlet then
