Yup, could be wrong though but I dont think their is a difference.

[S34MER]

no difference at all, only thing is, if its the 98bhp VTR you have, you will need to re-locate the oil filter for it to fit properly if your car is silvertop which is X reg or earlier, then you won't need to move a thing :y:

the only thing i can see that is going to cause a problem is my lambda sensor is on the right hand side but i cant see one in the picture.

I have a 2001 VTR with the cat under the car. So if the cat is under the car the oil filter doesnt need re locating? Also what are people opinions of Raceland manifolds?

The sensor is at the bottom were you cant see mate, you have to run it don the back of the engine.

ahh right i thought it would be something like that, thanks alot for your help guys. what do you think the one pictured is worth?

[S34MER]

what do you think the one pictured is worth?

what make is it? and how many miles has it covered?

[dazvtr]

the bloke aint got back to me yet mate it does look quite used but he says welds look of good quality. did you see the pic? iv only seen a few pics of raceland manifolds but it looks very similar imo

[makaveli144]

Looks like gmc 4-1 to me matey.If that helps S34MER, i dont have a clue how much its worth.

[S34MER]

i have a Raceland on mine (pic below), not very similar imo! but if its had parts welded i wouldn't pay more than £30 topps for it, as its on it way out imo

[makaveli144]

Its not Raceland thats for sure, the pipes overlap differently

[dazvtr]

i think what the chap ment when he said about the welds was meant as in when it was made. lovely looking motor you have there matey,well done:y:
