Default Brand new KV6 'DIY' Upper Inlet Manifolds - £299.99

Hello guys and girls,
First of all, I must stress that this product is for the DIYers among us (or those of us with a good garage!).

Basically, with the current availability issues regarding the KV6 Inlet Manifold I've been on the hunt for an alternative - and I've found one.
The only difference is the lack of MAP sensor, and it's also got one less vacuum takeoff (which you'll need for our cars).

Adding these DIY is simple enough, there's instructions on our page for the part here:
https://www.dmgrs.co.uk/products/kv6...mbly-lkb108021

The upshot is you can now have a brand new KV6 Inlet Manifold for under £300 as long as you're prepared to modify it a little.

Normal RRP for these is knocking on for £700, and they're a little scarce at the moment too.
Stock is due late March, we have 20 available.

Wow good find Matt. How on earth did you find these? I take it they are still being manufactured if you have found a job lot

I believe (and don't quote me, because I need to check dates when they arrive!) that these are from Powertrain when the MG Rover assets were bought by the Chinese.

We'll see when they land - it seems this iteration of the manifold was for USA/Mexico market Freelanders (no IAT / MAP sensor).

I think you'd have a lot more success with those, Mat, if you would provide them with modifications already done for and warrantied, even if that means partnering with someone who knows how to do the job and would mean a slight price increase...
