    well i fitted my coilovers a few weeks ago and ever scince i have never thought they were fitted correctly, i have aligned all the angles up as in caster camber but it still didnt feel rite, and the front 2 top stut nuts (the ones under the bonnet) are only on 2-3 turns each, si i thought i must of got the large mushroom shaped bush on the top of the coliovers the wrong way round , i had it fat side to the top so yesterday i swapped it round and put it fat side down and i manged to get a good 5-6 threads past the top nut, but this is when the knocking has started so im stuck now, has any one

    i was thinking about this the other day as well, as the standard manifold is supposed not to flow as goof to cylinder 1 and 6, and as it goes across the top of the engine as it gets hot and the throttle body sits almost over the exhaust manifold so it would be cooler as well been short run, also the intake piping would be shorteer as well
