how canny, i have just been looking at V8's as well, cobra here i come.......>!!!!!!!!
looks like somebody got a bit carried away with the red paint. also not sure if that pea shooter of a manifold will help. im sure true to lcb form
it will be sorted prior to installation 
rv8 manifolds ready to go on. it looks better in the flesh
Now that's what I call a LUMP 
looks like p5/p6 engine which had the the smaller diameter valves but highter CR than the later SD1.
if you are gonna rebuild, when you torque down the heads, leave out the intermediate bolts or do them to 20 lbft or less - they have reputation for
warping the heads.
