I will be redrilling and tapping the head on for the exhaust manifold. Dont want to use an adapter plate for the inlet side, easy enough to weld a zetec flange on the rover inlet manifold and the get it skimmed flat again to remove any distortion caused from the heat when welding. This way it looks like it was meant to be.cheers anywayz

This is the rs turbo throttle body which I have to make a plate up for which will then get welded onto the end of the rover plenum where I choped it off.

Which bodyshop is it in again? I think the lack of service is absolutely absurd! He should be doing for free now if he hopes to come away from this with any sort of reputation...
