NormanCoal 0 Posted November 10, 2004 not quite, the manifolds - inlet and exhaust - are different on the A3 version. I have seen the two together - I know the guy selling the engine, and had an R32 motor next to it to compare. The Exhaust manifiold and flexi's etc look the bollards, really is a work of art, and its a standard part! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
