Dropped the engine out my vts with the plan to turbo it.
I was going to use a vtr manifold and modify it to suit the vts head but i have seen a few pictures of vts with a cast manifold that is short and has square base, that lets the turbo bolt onto it. Any ideas what manifold it is?
Also where is best to take the oil feed for the turbo from? allen key on the side of the head? (front or rear one).
Cheers!

but does that have same fitment as vts head studs?
as i know the mk1 vtr manifold is short but different fitment from the vts head.
