Must sound stupid here but was about to fit extractors to my 4k in my ke70 and had a look at exhaust manifold i have out of car and thought how do you fit them because where does the carby go?

Well the extractors only replace exhaust manifold not the inlet manifold.

 

Just unbolt the inlet manifold from the exhaust manifold ,bolt extactors

 

and inlet manifold back on easy :P

Brains not working today haha ill just do it and work it out from there thanks for the help. A pic of extractors on a 4k might help me if anyone has one? tried looking for one but couldnt get a decent photo of what I'm trying to see

When i first looked at how it all bolt's together it does look kinda confusing. When you pull it of you will notice that the intake manifold is bolted to the original exhaust manifold. just unbolt the two pieces after you have pulled them of the block. As you pull it apart it should all make more sense.

When you do come to fitting the extractors make sure that the intake manifold and the extractors bolt up tight against the block. because sometimes the intake will be bolt up tighter then the extractors (and vice versa ) leaving a gap which will eventually blow out your gasket. you'll know if you haven't fitted them correctly because a ticking noise will arise after some driving time.

 

Heres some pic's of two 4k engines one with extractors and one with out. this should clarify things a bit.

 

 

Without Extractors. you can see how they bolt togther.

With extractors. You can see how the intake manifold doesn't connect to the extractors.looks odd but works good.

Hopefully this helps out a bit.

ooohh Taz that does look lovely!

 

Measure the flange thicknesses Rundall, on exhaust and inlet. If they're the same that's fine, but my Datto extractors were thinner so I welded half-washers on the washers I used to make up the difference.

 

How much were the extractors?? ...and let us know what difference they make!

ahk cause my uncle has a few carbies,

he also has a webber that was on a 1300 STB mazda.

He said it needs a rebuild, you reckon it would be good on a K? Casue I got a 4K so 1.3 you know...

Honestly mate, if it needs a re-build I wouldn't bother. Money for re-build kit would be better spent put towards a 32/32 weber or better. :D

 

My mate spent $200 getting that carby re-built, only to replace it with dual sidies not long after.
