Good point about the modification, but there are a number of things I dislike about the original manifold, the lack of access to the coils, lack of access to the injectors, the rubber joiners and the shape of it. When I install the new manifold, I doubt the old one will ever go back on, if it ever needs to, well I'm sure something can be fabricated for the mounting points.

The manifold means that you need to relocate the coils and a couple of other bits so I was thinking of moving to COP at the same time, however being sensible it might be best to just get new standard coils (cheap) whilst I move things about.
