Hi all Having recently acquired a set of Mike Saturs 4-2-1 manifold my question to all you people in the know is should I wrap them in some hear wrap or coat or paint them in a high temp.paint? Is this of any benefit to be done ? It obviously would help with cooling things down etc. But I wondered w...

Had a reply from the OC they are OK for the 11 spokes they come in primer so ready for a quick paint . They come with the badge centres in the item listing I see no reason why you can't change them..could be on to a winner

Thanks for the welcome chaps. A bit of freedom and a chat about mg's by the sea in New Brighton would be great. Ice cream all round

Oh hell yeh!!

Thanks for the info Rob can I ask just how big a job is it to fit and what is a respectable time for a competent mechanic to fit?
