Evening folks, does any one have any ideas or previous experiences with fitting the maniflow lcb manifold, ive tried for a couple of hours, having taken off my engine steadies and the rocker cover but it still wont fit! It just catches on the driveshafts. To the point where forcing it in anymore is starting to flex the drive shafts. Any help would be much appreciated thanks in advance

How are you doing it.

They just drop in normally. Outer first then centre pipe.

Im putting it in at 90 degree angle from the top and then trying to turn in back 90 degrees to line it up.

Ahh so it is not a LCB.

Never bothered with one of those types.

Think you have to undo the engine mounts and jack the engine forward if I remember right.
