so i want to change the intake manifold on my f8c to something that doesnt sit so high up. then i can get a proper bonnet for the boy without needing a dunny lid.
i was wondering if anyone knows if any of the intake manifolds from the f5a f6a f8b are interchangeable with each other
then i want to know if any of them are interchangeable with the f8c ?
the f8c intake is like a bloody snorkel

All Suzuki three cylinder F series manifolds are interchangeable, but not with the F8C which uses a different head design. Your options are:
a) Redesign the engine mounts so it fits under the bonnet.
b) Have a manifold custom made.
c) Cut and plastic weld the factory manifold.
d) Install an ITB setup.
e) Buy a neat bonnet scoop that isnt a dunny lid (Nissan Patrol for example).
