Got a 2.0 16V Redtop in my corsa and it is so low to the ground(manifold that is) it has already been caught a few times and i think it will soon have a hole in it if keeps on going the way it is. the manifold on my engine is off a calibra and the engine is out of a cav gsi so are the manifolds any different at all?

How low are all yours, i will try and get a pic of mine to show you.

Cheers

Maybe you need stiffer or higher front shocks?

Have a custom manifold made up by powerflow etc? Otherwise get them to welded a cally/astra/cav manifold onto a lower corsa manifold.

powerflow or any other custom exhaust place dont do custom exhaust manifolds cos they take 1000s or hours of R&D and those monekys wouldent av a clue where to start

id say get a astra or a cav manifold, but ask other red top owners what manifold they got

all the manifolds sit low
and your anitroll bar will sit even lower
mines about 3" of the floor
but aslong as u have put the antiroll bar on everthing will be fine, as it will hit that before the manifold.
