Long runners on manifold is good for torque. Short runners on manifold are good for RPM

Desirable is a balance between the two, depending on your needs.

why dont you just buy one? I havent mesured mine but I'd guess its about 50 - 60mm.

Ive just purchased a set of 50mm of off 1200relleycar and need to get hold of a manifold (for an A14 aswell). If anyone knows were i can buy or get one build please let me know. Cheers.

mine are made by redline - alldat try talking to grand auto or datsport or even somewhere like O.G's or outlaws

I can take some measurements of mine if you like.
Don't worry about lengths etc........if you go too long you won't get them in with the strut tower in the way.
Just do them the stock length as mass produced manifolds are

hey dattoman,

mine's in my buggy so i will need the length, so if you don't mind could you please measure them and let me know.
thanks bud
