   Nope, i managed to get away with using 2-3 manifold gaskets instead of one to give the clearance needed for the oil filter housing, and i also heatwrapped the manifold to not only shield the oil filter housing from the heat but to help lower the underbonnet temperatures

   So for the sake of taking a hour or so to give the car a oil change and £23 quids worth of parts you decided to bodge the fuck out of it with 3 gaskets?
   
   Nice work mate.
