ON Manifold help

Hey guys. I am looking to use an HKS cast iron maifold (externally gated, log type)
My mechanic said I need to use the HKS because of the limited space on the FB
A forum member has one for sale.
Below are pics of what he has for sale...

Is this the manifold I need on my TII engine.

Thanks guys

Yeah that manifold should fit, you might have some clearance issues with the wastegate and your idler arm for the steering though.

With the clearance issues with the wastegate and idler arm for the steering, could I just fab a plate or piping to get around that?

Yeah, just Fab a heat shield for the idler arm bushing. You should also replace the weak Idler Arm Bushing with a heavy duty Moog ball joint.
