AYP & AQX have different manifolds, not sure what the difference is but the part number is different.

Manifold looks awesome, i want mine done like that along with rocker cover.

How long does it take.?

i'm not too mechanically minded, but is it a bit of a job removing the inlet manifold and rocker cover?

 

[m0rk]

no, just undo it all

best replace gaskets while you do it though.

take pictures step by step & review it when you rebuild if you lack a good memory

Taking them off the ABF 16v engine was so much easier than I thought. They fell off in me 'and guvnor

on the rocker cover, some people remove that black block 'thingy'. is this common and a safe thing to do? thanks

 

[The_one]

The black box is to do with the vacuum, some people remove it without problems as far as im aware?
