MD11c exhaust manifold

Ther used to be a chap at or near Thornham Marina in Chichester harbour who welded them up out of stainless steel. I was told that they last much longer than the Volvo cast iron ones (just after I had bought a replacement one from Volvo Agents at Swanick for about £110)!

Just been quoted £421 + VAT for a new one from Keyparts, he said it was £100 cheeper than Volvo. It's the complete manifold not just the injection elbow. I was hoping some kind harted sole was going to say "I've got one lying about in my shed, you can have it for ££££". Guess I'll just keep looking, or dig deeper! Did you ever wish you'd never started something? Already spent best part of £180 on gaskets! If the wife finds out I'll be in the brown stuff. /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif
 
I've got a whole engine lying in a mates barn - which you could have for less than the keyparts price !

I've got 2 exhaust elbows somewhere - one I think needs a slight weld - but if you mean the manifold - do you mean the long rectangular bit that has (8?) bolts through it and the thermostat attaches to the front of ?

If so - theres one of those on the engine. Engine was running when I replaced it last winter
