Exhaust

Hi,

back to the exhaust!

Is there much difference between the cvh (1.8) and a zetec exhaust manifold?

Or should i say - would the zetec manifold fit the cvh????

Probaly been mentioned before.:D

No i dont think it does unfortunately

Sorry to differ Mark....;)

The cvh and zetec inlet and outlet manifold are exactly the same, you may have to trim a little bit off the outlet for a stud but they fit the same. I did a straight swap with mine only reason to change it later was for a full flow exhaust.

Cheers....AndyH

Oh well i cant always be correct :D

I just remember getting a zetec exhaust manifold gasket and laying it over the cvh and it didnt match very well at all

Didnt realise it would fit after a minor mod, good really as it will be easier for me come engine swap time.

Cheers for the replies,

I'm going to get a gasket and check anyway (not doubting anyone).

It would kill two bird with one stone if I upgrade at a later date for a zetec though.

Thats the beauty of a cvh all lot of the parts fit straight onto the zetec, even the engine mounting bolt pattern is the same.
