if you have PAS i found it easier taking the top radiator brackets of (only takes a second) and leaning it foreward to get the manifold into position,and youll need it jacked up or on axle stands,
also make sure you've got a 13mm ratchet spanner/some swivley (sp.?) socket set bits to get the far left hand nut of behind the PAS pump,they fit superb and the quality was great imo

I bought mine from there in August, ordered on a Monday and it arrived Wednesday morning.
They are one of the best companys I have ever dealt with, keeping me informed about when payment had cleared, when the itme was despatched, along with answering any questions I had beforehand, such as lead times, who it was being posted with etc.
Would 100% use them again, as the price was fantastic!

no probs bud, i used a swivel ratchet spanner but it can be done with socket set,if you take a look at existing manifold you'll kinda get the picture

I think he is still waiting, I mailed them and they replied normal delivery is 7 days so there is a problem with supply they do not hold any stock themselves. such is life, I want one to.
