Obviously I have to change the oil pan's gasket

To be honest I hadn't noticed anything else in those pics

Except the oily pan, right?

Manifold looks sexy.

[GreenyUK]

what are the benefits with this manifold? I've only seen similar on turbos.

[NafemanNathan]

2.75" collector to suit the amount of power I'm aiming for and therefore the amount of gases I'm expecting. 4-1 design which is best suited for high revving (Drag stylee). And curly-wurly primaries coz it looks "da bomb"... and adds turbulence to aid expelling the gases

[NafemanNathan]

Just had some more pics through ...









Apparently just 2-3 days to work in the finishing touches now

[GreenyUK]

you had me at curly wurly ha!
Sweet so what sort of power you going for, in figures? Saying enough to pull the moon close ain't going to cut it lol

[NafemanNathan]

This time round, 280+ bhp without being too optimistic. I have future plans to break the 300 mark as well, so this header is hopefully future proof, but I'll be building a whole New engine when it comes to it.

Wow that's wicked! I'm guess those figures are pretty hard to achieve on our engines.
I've always thought the prelude needs the power to match it's look. I've always fancied turbocharging but I know I'll miss the N\A noise and character.
