Hi there,
I can't help you, but have a look over this (long) post. I think from memory there is something in it about reversing the manifold.

I had my manifolds done locally, I did all the prep work and dropped them off to be welded. I'm putting an EJ 25 in my syncro and using the smallcar
coolant pipe which used the standard coolant manifold.

so reversing the manifold really only makes the plumbing more direct or neater ,the stainless pipes from small car must run around the top of the
engine and back down the side, anyone got a picture of this,also re the harness there's a guy on ebay doing harness's, luke from bayside motor
garage moorabbin anybody used him or know his work

This is not the best photo but these pipes are usually fitted to the turbo and H6 conversions.

If it's the add I am thinking of, the picture is actually of my harness 
. Go figure
Shame you are not looking for a EJ22 harness, I'm thinking of trading mine for an unmolested one and starting again.

Here are some quick shots in my engine bay, the brackets on the pipe don't really line up very well. Holes will need to be drilled and brackets
bent/adjusted.

Think you will need a NA flywheel, the turbo flywheels have a different height.

Ring gear is in the same position relative to the mounting flange of the flywheel.
NA is on the left, turbo on the right.
Given that the SmallCar conversion has trouble with the over extension of the clutch slave cylinder, using a flywheel which make this worse is not
ideal.

I have done mine myself. just had to strip everything of the engine and cut and shut the pipe and get it tig welded back together seem to work well.
only cut around 1 1/2 inches out of the middle of manifold between last outlet and the end. and blocked the other end up where the 1/2 inch pipe comes
out.

depends on the canister. being old I seen more have a purge valve operated by a vac port on the TB just past idle.
Probably need a canister from a car that uses a solenoid.
basically they have 3 ports.
Evap/vapor= from the fuel tank vapor line
Air= just to atmosphere or better in to the air cleaner box to prevent dust ingestion.
Purge= to solenoid operated by the ECU. this is condensed liquid fuel.

Cleaned up the manifold a little today and gave it a pressure test. Started at 10 psi and finished with a max of 25 psi, no leaks.
