I know this is a relatively well trodden path and thread but I can't find anything recent, I'm after a turbo manifold for an e34 325I, it seems there's plenty of lhd compatible ones available but nothing happy in rhd form, anyone shed any light on this? Or anyone know of decent but reasonably priced fabricators in/around bucks? Any other info regarding this topic received gratefully too. Cheers!

Can a lhd manifold not be adapted? On my e30 I cut and re-welded the stainless steel exhaust manifolds till they fitted in there, haven't had a problem yet.
Are you building a e34 turbo?

I sell parts for them and plenty of bits to drifters for this kind of thing. As far as I'm aware there is no RHD off the shelf manifold, and they all either make their own, or adapt a LHD one. If making one, you'll need a pair of M52 manifolds, as the M50 one is cast.

I have a stainless M50 turbo manifold that is surplus to requirements. It's an unused item that I bought for use on Project Bratwurst, my now sold PPC £999 challenge car that was supposed to become a drag car. You will however hit clearance issues with the steering column so you'll have to get creative. Let me know if you are interested and I'll take some photos.
