Fitting an Offside p38 Manifold on a 101

[bedbug]

Fitting the offside is the easiest of the pair. All you have to do is cut off the down pipe section after the collector and weld it back on so the Handbrake linkage doest pull on it when the Handbrake is on. You also don't want the Handbrake linkage rattling against it every time you cross a pot hole or cats eye.
