Zetec / ST170 Exhaust Manifold
scootz - 1/9/07 at 12:00 PM

Does anyone know if the Exhaust manifold dimensions are different between a standard Zetec to a ST170 (I know the ST is listed as a Duratec, but it's not... it's just a fancy Zetec)?

I am fitting an st170 engine into my Velocity and the standard zetec exhaust manifold fits........

thanks

The manifold flange is interchangeable but the pipes are totally different.

ST170 manifold has really long primaries, the normal (1.8/2.0) Zetec has short primaries which join the CAT pipe (as a single larger flange) level with the manifold (after going up and doing a 180 back down).

Can't beat the ST170 manifold if you can use it as is.

If you do use the ST170 manifold as is, you'll need a new dipstick tube which positions it between cylinders 2-3 rather than at one end.
