We all know that Burton is the place to go for all things classic Ford, but what about a Ford Escort M1/2 with a transplanted Vauxhall XE engine in it? It’s a popular conversion and now Burton can supply a Simpson stainless steel exhaust manifold to suit.
This stainless steel exhaust manifold has been handmade to provide maximum performance whilst ensuring it visually looks like a work of art at the same time. The photograph only gives an indication of how amazing these manifolds look like in the flesh!
The manifold is manufactured from 304 grade stainless steel with a wall thickness of 1.2mm. Joints are gas purged TIG welded. Gas purging provides two benefits. Firstly it prevents oxidisation in the weld which would compromise the strength and corrosive resistance of the joint. Secondly it allows the weld to remain smooth inside the pipe thus increasing exhaust gas flow.
All bends in the tube are mandrel bent to ensure there is no reduction in diameter throughout the bend.
All primary pipes are constructed to an equal length to ensure smooth and equal performance from each cylinder.
All collectors are a fully welded merge type which are designed to maximise gas flow.
Burton offers four versions of this manifold:
