Michael,

Also as Ernest mentioned perhaps they would b= uild one

without the wastgate connection if the basic manifolr will

clear your mount.........Ask them if the manifold will mount

upside down which will put the TO4 mount flange to the

front of the engine (in the airplane) and facing down......That

might clear your mount better........

I have a cast iron TO4 manifold (approx same s= ize and

shape) and it will mount upside down...........

Michael,

Other than the loss of exhaust scavengi= ng and the resulting slight

loss of power as Ernest mentioned there should be no down&n= bsp;side and

155 hp should not be a problem with an efficient intake system ..= ..Are

you going with fuel injection ??............
