    Best exhaust manifold?

    Hi guys I would like to get some feedback/opinions on what the best exhaust manifold is for a williams i.e . flowed std, supersprint, ktec etc..... any ideas? always find it best to ask people who have used them. Cheers ANDREW.

    Supersprint/Ktec give good results but can have a tendancy to crack.

    will only crack if not braced as per the standard manifold. When they are braced they are fine.

    No but as Northy ill tell you what you can do is make one up. the Supercrack has a couple of sliding plates that line up when you have the manifold and downpipe lined up, you then secure them with a bolt. You could make up a brace which you can bot onto the block and mate it up to this to reduce movement.

    There is a flex joint at the end of the downpipe:

    Mine on Saturday:



    Had to remove it again as it has a tendency to blow on my manifold to d/p joint. Sorted now (touch wood) with firegum paste.

    You can get a Devil manifold. Has a more OE style flex gasket I think.
