FIXED AGAIN
Dont ever buy a cheap stainless manifold I have lost count how many times I have welded this one up, On the plus side I am getting really quick at taking it off and putting it back on, I replaced all the gaskets this time with metal gaskets, Fingers crossed next time it comes off ill be replacing it with a steam pipe one. I also checked my ignition timing because I have never done it I just chucked the engine when I got it and never thought anything of it, Turns out it was out retarded by 5 degrees, pretty sure it goes better now




Been through it all before, once its welded up good(especially with some good gussets!) they last forever. Loving the 180, need to tee up another old school Slipway meet when it gets underway again!
