gary88ross Posted March 21, 2014 Author Share Posted March 21, 2014 Alryt looks like the parts on mine are mixed up by that article I have a phase2 inlet so will that not fit a v3 engine Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
savage bulldogs Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 V1 v2 (phase 1) and v3/ v4 (phase1.5) heads inlets are the same patern so any v1 to v4 inlet will fit any v1 to v4 heads. I have v1 (phase 1) heads bolted to my v3 inlet . you just have to use the correct version inlet , injectors, auxiliaries to match the phase of the car/loom . v6/v6 (phase 2 ) head/ inlet patern is different to v1 to v4 so won't fit but , you can still use the injectors with "phase adapters" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
