As title suggests, Ford Focus ST170 plastic inlet manifold for sale.

Bought this on eBay about a month ago, but as much as I prefer it to my homemade jobbie, I'd already cut the air filter back plate and can't be fussed with the additional hassle of getting another and re-spacing the carbs.

I paid £67 for it, plus £9 P&P. Since then, I also sourced the correct rubbers and clips for it as ones included were perished, which I'll also include.

Looking for as much as possible back on it really, as I spent time cleaning it all up and getting ready to fit - only to have a change of decision.

£70 posted anyone? Or could do less if collected from Chelmsford, Essex?

Will this fit a 2.0 zetec blacktop and allow bike TB's to be hooked up?

If so first refusal please!

I believe the Zetecs all have similar inlet ports, so should fit - however, I'd wait for someone to confirm this first as it's only hearsay! I purchased it to fit my 1.8 silvertop, and it seemed to line up just fine.

It's got holes in the top of the manifold for the injectors to sit (not included as I didn't get any - am using carbs), and should suit a set of TB's nicely. As a word of warning, they minght need respacing though; again, someone else will probably be able to offer a more in-depth approach than I!

First refusal is given to speedstar though....

I have GSXR TB's on mine.

Cylinders 1 & 2 line up fine, cylinder 3 needs a little bit of spacing and number 4 needs a bit more.

The manifold is made of plastic and can be manipulated a bit with a hot air gun. I used one to get the oval ends where they meet the TB's round then used a dremel to finish them off. Good results indeed.

Getting a bit worried not heard anything


Paid for this weeks ago and no response or manifold.
