Exhaust manifold

[teamlorenz]

Ok, since i am doing lots of other stuff to my 90 SE I am going to put on a new exhaust manifold. question is i see i could get a lotus replacement or the new casting from southwest lotus, what are most people replacing theres with.
thanks
Chris

I have used an SG iron replacement on an Excel a while back, which worked well. I have just replaced my S3 turbo manifold with a Lotus replacement as these are not available in SG. I don't think these early Turbo manifolds fail so often, but it would have been nice to have been able to get hold of an aftermaket SG part to match the intermediate manifold.
Just check the machining accuracy, this should not be a problem, but you occasionally get one that is a bit out.
Hope this helps
Dick
