exhaust manifold & lsd question

[rusty82]

ive been offered a cast rs2000 mk2 manifold and down pipe in nearly new condition for peanuts of corse the manifold will bolt up to any pinto but does anyone know if there is enough room for the down pipe on a mk5 cortina? i know i will have to mod the standard down pipe on the exhaust on the car to slide the rs down pipe onto it. i tryed fitting a 4 branch off a capri but the angles were all wrong and it would take tomuch cutting and shutting to make it fit....the idea is to get rid of the stupid "O" ring idea on the standard mk5 exhaust manifold. cause where i live in northwales the exhaust takes a right beating and the O ring design just aint strong enough, also will a capri lsd fit into my english axle without tomuch trouble?

you cannot fit an atlas LSD in an english axle. if both axles are english i'd say no problem

manifold and down pipe should'nt be a problem.have a look in parts for sale theres a pinto engine for sale and its sat in a cortina with an rs manifold on it.
