Hi, has anyone got an exhaust manifold to go with twin Strombergs? It's actually for a series V Alpine, but I would think they are the same as those on the late series cars and the Fastback, but i might be wrong of course as I've only got my H120 to compare with. Cheers, Jonathan

I'm not sure if they are the same: Inlet's probably were not, but Exhausts may be? Don't have a parts book to hand, but I would think we've got an exhaust one (F'back) at Central Stores. Not there until mid-late Jan, but happy to have a look. Will try and check parts book on my return home to see if Ser V and Fastback same. Cheers. G.

The exhaust manifolds are not the same! I know that by experience when I placed in the early nineties an engine from a fastback Rapier in a Sunbeam Alpine series 4. Both the inlet and exhaust manifolds are different.

I've just realised that the Fastback won't be the same because the engine sits at an angle, but perhaps the series cars will fit as I'm guessing that they sit square in the engine bay??
