For Leo Vince owners ONLY!!!
I have a lot of connections in the aftermarket industry, and was thinking
of having a stepped exhaust manifold built for my Leo Vince slip ons, I will be
using the Termi RACE stepped manifold as a guide,  and have it fit into the
LV's (no reason to reinvent the wheel) The stepped header design should favor
the power in the upper ranges, and work well with the DP cams, I will try
and have the header pipes tuck in tighter, for more cornering ground
clearance, as on Track day I ground my stock front header pipe.
Want I need to know if there are Leo Vince owners that would be interested
in this manifold set-up, I do not have a price yet, as it will depend on how
many I can order, but will cost far less than the Termi mid manifold for sure.
So please post up if interested, as I need an approx count. Thanks Alex

I'm interested but I need to know the price before I can commit. I assume that they will be made of stainless steel. You might to consider routing the pipe for the front cylinder under the engine for cornering clearance and for better access to the oil screen. The Staintune headers for the multistrada are routed this way.

Peter, the pipe routing will be just about the same as the Termi race pipe,
I cannot run the pipe under the engine as some of us have skid plates, or will
have, so it must fit with this option, if you have to take off the header pipe
for the oil screen access with the Termi pipe, (I don't know) then you'll have
to do the same for this pipe. Alex
PS: yes they will be SS, but the prototype will be mild steel

Same as yours......
Peter, the manifold should really work well with your set-up, it will be much like mine,
I plan to go 1123 Pistal big bore HC pistons, porting, maybe larger valves,
and the installation of my DP performance cams. I going to wait on the TPO
air intake set-up until I do a dyno run, to see what numbers she pulls, if I can
get in the 105HP range,  I'll keep the airbox. Alex

Looking at how Peter's exhaust manifold is so shinny, I was starting to think of cleaning mine, now replacing it is a better idea
