peteretep Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 I've done it and I'm helping rot808 do it too, it's pretty easy I've got to say. The only bit that might be considered hard is making the manifold, but that depends on the configuration of the inlet area on your motor Also, I have talked to the bogg bros before and they are nice guys and helpful Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fordcapri1980 Posted October 13, 2011 Author Share Posted October 13, 2011 do you have an email address for them or do i have to ring the UK number? hope i can source a manifold from them, or some how find some one to do it ect Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peteretep Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 I just rang them. I would see if someone in nz could do it for you as the costs end up rather high if you get one bought in from overseas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
