M50 manifold done

Think that may well be it

I spoke to hack on the phone when looking, very nice people but said they no longer supply the kit. Focusing on newer bmws apparently. Unless there was more demand maybe?
The kit has custom piping, brackets & gaskets . It's money but it makes it simple and all in one. Especially as the various online guides can be a bit ambiguous and varying. I looked extensively and getting it from the USA seemed to be the best option.
Another supplier I used for the 328 was ca automotive. They're uk, again very nice people. They do a complete kit Inc manifold but it's fairly expensive too.
Of course you could do it diy but it's not too straight forward.

Cheers all, I'm probably going to be taking an 'extended test drive' around dartmoor area over the weekend if anyone is interested.

Hope the test drive goes well. Like the idea of this mod. Unfortunately I'm working all weekend and my Zed is half way through a rebuild of the rear sub-frame and suspension. It would be good to get some of the South West Zeds together though. Possibly September?

Am I right in saying that this is the M50 Manifold on the M52? Does it also fit the M52TU? Thanks

Yes it is the manifold from the 2.5 But it will not fit the TU. You need the 330 manifold. @Rha did this have a read of his write up.
