I would have to have a look in the parts shed, think there is a set in the cave.

I have a pair of new genuine VX gaskets.

Remember that you'll also need to blank off the EGR.

Thats another reason to change to the uprated headers.... will tidy up the engine bay. Iv already deleted the AC pipework, just need to remove the pump, Iv got the shorter drive belt waiting to be fitted, just haven't had the time or weather to get on with it....

The EGR has already been blanked off, been like that for around 12months....

Good stuff. With the 3.2 manifolds you'll also be rid of the air injection gibbons if you've not binned them already  ;)

I've got a pair of the manifold to downpipe seals too.

You need to trim a bit off the lip on the downpipe flanges but you probably knew that already.

I knew something needed trimming but wasn't sure what :y

When you say seals... do you mean the metallic type grey coloured rings...?

Think the manifolds should free up a couple of horses too, Im led to believe. With the exhaust I have fitted, it should work quite well....

Yeah, the metallic gauze rings.

The 3.2 manifolds flow a little better than the cast 3.0 ones.
