![]() Hi peeps, a mate of mine come round the other day and was looking at my car. Upon spying the massive inlet manifold sticking up out of the engine bay he asked why I did not find one from a Galaxy. Apparently ford used the NSE (2.0 DOHC 8 valve I4) in early galaxies and the manifold goes down instead of up. Can anyone confirm or contradict this? He thinks that it may have all the same outlets and even use the same throttle body. I am desperately seeking a solution that will eliminate the need for a massive hump in the bonnet so any input would be very much appreciated.
Best and all that, Enoch |

![]() Grabbed some photos. It certainly has a slimmer manifold.

![]() Thanks for that Deezee, I am hoping the 8 valve version looks very similar, if it does then I will be one happy bunny

The thermostat I had on a stripped down Sierra DOHC was in the same place as those photos of the galaxy engine thermostat? |

![]() Hi again Deezee, is that not the thermostat housing at the back of the engine above the flywheel? On mine the thermostat housing is part of the inlet manifold, it sits at the front of the engine. Can't quite see from your photos if it is the same on the galaxy assembly or not.
Cheers, Enoch. |
