4age Fwd Air Intake Manifold

[Rola Drifter]

hi all, just a quick question.

i've been searching through all of the different forums to try n find the answer but i was wondering if someone out there has put a fwd 4age into their ae71 or ke70, and when they got it into the car did the air intake manifold clear under the bonnet without being modded in another way than just the cut n shut to put the throttle body onto the front instead of the rear???????????

you can get a sprinter inlet manifold which has the throttle body facing the front. big port only.

because if you do it will go right into the clutch master....

hey guys thanks for replying so quickly. would u happen to know why the fwd manifold cut n shut will go right into the clutch master n the rwd sprinter manifold wouldn't??????

An original RWD bigport manifold works good on RWD 4ages and what not, A FWD manifold needs to be cut n shut to be used on a RWD.

 

If you just stick a FWD manifold on a RWD then it goes under the clutch master.

oh ok then. what if its a complete fwd ae92 4age going into an ae71????? this is why my question of getting it modified n if it would clear most things??? just trying to get most of the things done before it goes into the car which will be happening over christmas if i can work out the manifold stuff...... thanks

You will need to get the manifold cut n shut buy some one who knows what there doing and pick up some rwd extractors.
