Well spotted Stixy ;),......I've just bought one myself :)

Didn't realise they made a 2.3 Transit though :-/

P.S....I rang the seller to check the part number & it is the same as the Scorp manifold :)

Seller must have realised he's on to a good thing, he's re-listed another 5 and increased the price by £25 to £75.

Still do :)

Order yourself a sparkly new 09 plate petrol transit from Fords and pop your bonnet - welcome to scorp heaven ;)

Even at £75 a throw it's still a good deal. The manifold alone cost about £300 from Ford plus it's got all the hardware on it....Idle control valve, fuel pressure regulator, throttle, fuel rail & injectors, sensors, t-stat & EGR fitting.

If you bought all that from Ford, I wouldn't imagine you'd get much change out of £700 :o

I wonder where they get them from ?

What a bargain couldn’t resist it for the injectors alone (hope they’re the same – the rail is the same number) grabbed the last £60 one.
It arrived this morning cocooned in its Ford box.

The Idle control valve has the wrong plug but haven’t noticed any other differences.

I also notice they’ve altered the stat cover so you can’t put the stat in against the flow.

Just off to bin the packing foam – the fumes coming off have filled the house.

Got mine today as well...both of them ;D....not being greedy, the other ones for a mate :)

Apart from the IACV having the wrong plug the only other thing I notice is the throttle cable linkage is totally different, but for £60 apiece, who's complaining :D

Yes, but unlike the Galaxy ones, they have the sensor fittings & the t-stat cover fittings (as the Scorp does)....they even have the two sensors & t-stat (usually £17 each from Ford) pre-fitted as well :)

Edit.....the temp guage sender has a different plug fitting ::)

Today I transferred the new injectors & rail, fuel pressure regulator, throttle body & the internal egr pipe.

The throttle body only needed the plastic part that the cables go to swapping over.

I noticed the EGR pipe doesn’t vent under the idle control valve like the Scorpio one, which is why I changed it – I wondered if the idle control valve may stay cleaner.

I also fitted the idle control valve after chopping the socket about to fit the Scorpio plug.

Too early to say if it’s had any effect but running & driving fine.
