Will a 309 gti16 exhaust manifold fit a XU10j4RS head ?

Not without allot of work, the port spacing and shapes are completly different between the 2 heads

And I thought their were problems fitting one to a RHD drive car anyway? Because of the Master cylinder/Servo.

But why would you want that? Just like the 309gti16 manifold the RS one is a work of art. And also won't give much problems around the bulkhead (I've heard from people who have done the conversion).

I just thought of it as an alternative to having to repossition/tilt the gti6 engine when fitting into a 205.

The car has a pedal box fitted so thats not an issue. But as per Miles reply we wont be going down this route now.

Cheers.

The GTI16 manifold don't fit good on a XU10 block with the 1.9 Mi16 head either because of the block beeing taller than the alloy one.

I had to do some modifications to mine and made a custom downpipe, but the manifold seemed to be able to coope with lots of power, 270bhp ;)
