Hi Wim

No, the manifold is a standard Ford one

It came from an 1998 Ford Escort Mk5/6 .... Alloy inlet manifolds were originally fitted to the earlier models & were replaced by downward hanging plastic inlet manifolds in about 1997/98 ?

They were fitted to the late 1.6 & 1.8 Zetec engined car's

I am not sure if this manifold was also fitted to the later Mondeo's !!??

The one I picked up was from a 1.6 litre model .... Easy got as it was laying on the floor, next to the car.
Next time I am at the breaker's I will collect the correct 1.8 Litre version, I strongly suspect that there will be a difference in the size of throttle body between the 1.6 & 1.8

Just need to do a slight modification to the steering extension shaft & the job will sorted
