Tubular exhaust manifolds. RV8 into Capri Mk1

Post by BudgieV8 »

If this has been asked before, Many apologies, but I have just spent ages trying to sort this & need your help.

Engine is an SD1 RV8. Car is a Capri Mk1.
Tubular manifolds I have are admittedly off a Landy, but they 'nearly' fit - just foul the Capri steering assembly totally.

Can anyone advise where I will get tubular manifolds for the RV8 which fits with the Capri steering assembly & chassis permutations?
- or if anyone supplies a new Capri steering assembly & manifold 'combo' to fit?
Cheers
Paul

Speak to Mike @ Magnum Engineering as they made my manifolds but that was some time back now. Only mod to steering is to replace rubber coupling with solid metal.

You could try Auto power and Custom.
They have loads of different engine conversion kits for many cars and do sell individual parts and if my memory at this time of night is still working I'm sure they have exhaust fanimolds for your car.
Sorry don't have a contact number for them.
