They are confused between a 2bbl and 4bbl adapter. 4bbl V8 adapters go left and right, the Gasresearch Nissan TB42 adapter faces either forward or rearwards, they are milled on an offset angle so will lean into or away fron the head about 5 degrees.

cheers for the reply guys.
sh1ty, would you have a part number or anything so i can ring gas research and order 1? i rang 1 of there fitters today and he said he would be able to help me with a base plate and an adaptor but he thought it would be around the $250 mark. as im trying to do this mod on a cheap budget i dont want to get ripped off.

cheers.
