probably will need to trim the studs in the head lol!

racelands are a cunt to fit, make sure you use the small manifold nuts to not the large ones!

I fitted the raceland on the vts it took more patience really than it been difficult, Best way to do it is make sure the studs are all left in the head fit then mount the raceland to head studs, then get underneath the car and fix it to the gearbox bracket then the fun part use lots of oil lubricants and the smallest 13mm ring spanner you can find get the bolts on as tight as possible with your fingers then use the ring spanner on the bottom nuts probably will only get a quater turn on some of them each time but be persistant with it and jobs a good one

LOL, so does the bloke who fitted mine. :)

mine was a bitch to fit. like stiffler69 said, just go slow and be patient! i tried to rush mine and it went a bit tits to the sky! one of the bolts snapped in the head and is still stuck (i'm going to tackle that today). also, the bolt that attaches the down pipe to the gear box wouldn't fit for some reason. does anyone know if thats a bad thing?
