as long as you get a manifold made for the mk2 block then you will be ok. i know that supersprint and GMC both make one that fits straight on. however you can get a mk1 manifold that will fit your mk2 block but you will need to relocate the oil filter. you will need the mk1 thread, mk1 filter and need to dril and block up the oil return valve on the engine block.

there is a guide on here somewhere that explains everything you need to do, have a search for it mate

ok but will i need to make any mods for it to fit such as the oil filter?
