Hi, 2.3 inlet manifold, worth giving this another twirl. I think it would be easier getting hens teeth

The 2.0 Manifold fits without a problem. Everything stays the same, it only might be necessary to extend a few wires but it will work and it won't fail like the 2.3 plastic one Smiley

I thought you had to re-direct/join together a couple of vacuum pipes when fitting a 2.0 inlet manifold to a 2.3 ?
 
Also the air trunking is different....the 2.3 has one large pipe going to a large single barrelled butterfly throttle, & the 2.0 has a twin pipe going to a smaller barrelled twin butterfly throttle  Smiley

Pipes are a straight swap Jonny Smiley We've be working hard for the past few days on this problem and there are several ways of fixing the 2.3 manifold using 2.0 parts that require quite a bit of tooling  but you can do a straight swap extending some wiring Smiley
