KYK711D Vitesse Exhaust Manifold

[martyn wright]

Hi All!  My (Late) 1600/6 has a manifold 307390 - V3015 with no connection for me to fit a Brake Servo!  There is a Vitesse Manifold on EBay,  308671 - Which has this connection!   Would this model Number fit my engine?

thats for a gT6 MK2   the mk2 2ltr  is completely different to 1600/Mk1   the porting is wildly different 

why not drill and tap you existing ???

i take it that being a late 1600 you have twin stombergs   so thats the same manifold as the MK1 2 ltr  used  thats what i used when we converted from the solex

Thanks Pete!  I think I will drill it as easier than taking the manifold off and cheaper lol!

yes a greased drill will catch much of the swarf , same with a tap  keep well greased 

a vacuum to suck up any swarf also helps 

and any small particles will just get passed through the combustion process its not something to be overly worried about
