Try http://www.piercemanifolds.com/products.htm I think they sell them as individual components.

I have one sitting on my workbench right now. It is, however, attached to a head and a set of 45 DCOE's...

Out of interest, does the intake from the VW LT 2.0 van/truck fit? AFAIK this is the engine used as the basis for ours and the LT used carbs...

i dont think so becuase i believe i read somewhere that the head on the 924 is actually a porsche design, but everything else is VW.

The head is very similar to the one used on the 2 litre Audi's. The only visible difference is that they have drilled holes for the injectors, as the Audi did not use them. (The Audi head has provisionings for them.)

The difference between "our engine" and the Audi variant is that the head takes injectors, the pistons give higher compression, and the pan is different. The block is identical as far as I could see.

(This is what I observed from an Audi "donor" engine from a car that had 50k kms on it... And turned out to be more worn then mine, so I ended up doing a rebuild of the original engine instead.)
