Does anybody know if the stock 2.8 exhaust manifolds will fit between the wheel wells. I am considering using them for a turbo installation. Stan's in Auburn, WA. is no longer making the v6 headers, nor is he doing custom work.
I know at one time Jose had done a turbo v6 alpine and I am curious if he used the stock manifolds or had custom ones made. I was thinking of switching them side to side to avoid the steering linkage. Again just an idea, but before wasting time I'm asking you all with a ton of more knowledge. Thanks.
Not on a Ford 2.8. The 2.6 maybe as it has only two exhaust ports.Thanks to all. After looking at those pi tures now I understand how Jose squeezed so much hp out of that engine. I used to race a 76 capri and bought most parts from a defunct company out of Portland OR. called Rocstock. They did a draw thru turbo kit and I think they just switched exhaust manifold sides to route the exhaust forward to the turbo.
