   Should do mate,it might need the mk2 oil filter setup but its usually the other way round and I guess the mk2 will probably have had the mk1 oil filter setup fitted....go get it quick lol, can sell it on if not.

   All 8v manifolds fit all 8v engines.
   
   It will fit your MK1 VTR, only problem you MAY come across is a second lambda sensor hole (the later MK2's had 2 lambda's whereas the MK1's and early MK2's only had 1 lambda) which you can get welded up anyway.
