Title: New Exhaust Header
Post by: so cal mark on October 03, 2010, 08:51:58 PM
We're now producing a header for lhd 131s. The flange is 1/2" cnc machined and port matched. Tubes are welded both inside and out. The header features the proven stepper-design that produces great midrange torque without sacrificing top end. The header is ceramic coated and polished. The header will be available on our website and ebay store. Price is $625 including the ceramic plating and polishing

A Tad expensive, but i do know the quality will be good.
Ive bought parts from Alison automotive before and the quality is excellent, in fact they made me a custom inlet manifold for fitting of my TB's to my TC. Which they can now offer anyone fitting TB's to a TC. Puts the TB's at a rake of 22.5 degrees and gives more clearence from the bulkhead and inner wing, better access to the Starter motor, incidently Alinson also do a HiTorque starter for the 131 which i also fitted.

G'day Steve,
Any chance of a photo more from the side rather than above and maybe one from the front? I think a standard starter motor is going to give me clearance issues for mounting a super charger, I just wonder if one of these would be any better.

Manifold gives a bit more space:

Now let's see... Could it be for some replica that is being built in Holland? ;D ;D ;D

Post by: mirafiori76 on October 10, 2010, 05:28:20 PM
Possible. Or elsewhere. Fur sure it will fit on the TC engine. But how about the car? I know it won't fit any of my 131's...

Is it possible to move that mounting flange 90 degrees so the motor sits to the side, not on top? That would solve all my clearance issues!

Tas131,

Can you tell us what this starter has to do in this topic? It's about an exhaust header. :)

The starter comes from the same supplier, photos were posted by someone else. I'm sure the supplier doesn't mind the exposure!

Hi Tas131,
starter is currently fitted to the car, from what i can see the answer to your question is No.

Hi, do you manufacture these for RHD fiat 131 sport? And is there a difference in a 4 branch manifold for a LHD and RHD?

thanks

Post by: so cal mark on October 11, 2010, 07:32:25 PM
I don't have them for a rhd car, there aren't any in the US that I'm aware of to use for mock-up

Post by: mirafiori76 on October 11, 2010, 09:06:53 PM
Mark,

For which 131 did you build this exhaust header? Do you have a picture of one fitted on an engine in a car? Especially a picture taken from the underside of that particular car? I'm just curious here.

I'll have pics of the header in the car next week

here are engine compartment pics of the header on a 1978 131. This car also features our new custom aluminum radiator with electric fan and adjustable controller. The header will also fit a car fitted with power steering
