in need of extractors for the 253 in the fb.rather try for type that doesnt go through the inner gaurds.any info greatly received cheers shane.

The only V8 into FB/EK extractors that don't go through the guards that I've seen have been custom made Shane, Trev .

thanks for that trev i will have to see if any body has a second hand pair of the others then.trying to get the old girl ready 4 the nationals

Instead of getting something you don't really want, just use some stock manifolds for the Nationals and then get what you want when you have the time, Trev .

Yep, No one makes these.. I had to make mine... If your interested I may be able to make more but there is a fair amount of work involved.. Send me a pm, I can give ya some tips if you decided to make your own.

hi trev. stock ones dont fit worst luck not enough room because of steering rod cheers shane.

Well, thats me out of ideas , Trev .

I was speaking to Mick ( ratbox ) a while back and I think ( hope I recall the conversation correct ) he said that he able to was use the standard 253/308 cast iron manifolds in one of his Ratbox V8 Conversions Pty Ltd projects in an EK ??.

Shane, are you able to lift the engine mounts a bit higher to enable them to allow clearance for the shaft?

Suppose you've probably already thought of that though..............

Just a thought................
