Purchased this manifold as i had hoped to be able to pick up a reasonably priced RB26 head which i was then going to use with an RB30 and a T04Z. Time has past and the RB20 still wont die so starting to slowly sell of the parts that i have accuulated over time for the "what if the 'ol RB20 dies" engine ... it seems it wont die My 2008 plans include trip OS and Dutton rally, so LOL cant justify having parts laying around:)

It has mounts that will allow you to easily make a high quality and effective heat shield out of ACL dual layer shielding, think XR6 Turbo. It is also cast so will be rugged and durable on the street/track without cracking.

Some pics of the manifold...

I just cracked my big expensive rotors so need replacements...any offers?

Price update. Will accept a reasonable offer...promised myself i wouldnt go diving into too many of my savings this year to track the car so have to move some parts laying around

Nobody building up a biog power RB30 with 26 head?

trouble is that most guys upgrading an rb26 or doing a 30/26 are obviously after big power gains so would probably cough the extra for something like a 6BOOST tubular header

it's a bit of a paradox

good luck with the sale

Fair point. But there is nothing wrong with the performance of these manifolds with flow testing showing they are very good things. They are low mount and give the engine bay a more understated look. Thats what i was after anyway. Same reason why when my TD06 setup comes off the RB20 i am likely to go 3071 on std manifold for reliability and more std look

For those thinking this is a crappy cast manifold, look closely at the casting and you will be able to see it is essentially a 6 into 2 into 1 manifold, much like many of the aftermarket tubular manifolds. Only cast so without the welds/points of failure/cracking and also without the poor fit up and alignment that many of the manifolds using cast elbows suffer from. This manifold can be easily match ported to the head and extrude honed for those massively anal about ensuring a smooth path for exhaust gases. This was my plan, only the cost of RB26 heads vs a holiday. Well the RB26 head lost out

Im moving this from my lounge room this weekend into a storage lot so wont really be for sale as it wont be accessible (not without plenty of notice) Will accpet any reasonable offer this week.
