A7 OEM manifold? Yes, but think you need to notch the front engine mount bracket.

No it's not a direct fit. You will need to retrofit a few parts. There is a guide on rosko racing website.

Just to confuse things, will a bb1 h22a downpipe fit on an h22a7 manifold? :-D

A friend has got a huge dent in his downpipe & I've got a spare bb1 one.
