So everyone uses the xsara manifolds for front mounts. I was just wondering why people didn't use a standard flat diesel manifold as the point to the front. Do they not fit? [attachment=14363]

That's what I thought surely they fit, loads of the about I can't see why not. I might just get one at local scrappy when I pick up an axle and bolt it on to see.

If you dont use the standard inlet and an adaptor then a 406 manifold is better than the xantia as it doesnt foul the master cylinder.
