        got my new turbo manifold, I test fit it on a spare head and it fit like poo, had to enlarge 4-5 holes and cut the flange in half to get it to fit good, I had to also cut the gasket in half as well.

            because equal length, high turbo placement which in turn removed 14 inches of charge piping and it was half the price so I make profit selling my old one;)
            and my custom made wastegate tube will make changing springs a piece of cake.

            my engine bay is going to be a lot cleaner.

                  so the manifold fits well for something built blindly outside the car with no test fits. about 1" of clearance between body and wastegate tube at the low end and .5" of clearance up top.

                          got the new head, got all the manifolds bolted on and I will be dropping it on as one piece, just need an extra set of hands.

                          car should be running by the weekend.
