  • Hello! I'm a chat assistant who has reviewed this assembly guide for Ford GT model. I'm ready to help you assemble its parts, including exhaust manifolds, exhaust pipe connectors, and the distributor. Feel free to ask me questions.
  • What should I do before starting assembly?
    What does “R1” mean when attaching exhaust manifold?
    Where should I attach exhaust pipe to?

STEP 81-3
Insert exhaust manifold 2
(81B) – marked with “R2”
– into hole “2” in the right
cylinder head (78A). Ensure
that the curved end of the
manifold is fully inserted into
the cylinder head.
STEP 81-2
Find where the exhaust manifolds go –
numbered 1-4 in the photo – on the right
cylinder head (78A).
Insert exhaust manifold 1 (81A) – marked with
“R1” on the end – into hole “1” in the right

STEP 83-1
Attach one of the exhaust pipe
connectors (83A) to the four left-
hand exhaust manifolds. Insert
the ends of the manifolds into the
holes in the connector, as shown
in the photo. Press the connector
rmly into place.
STEP 83-3
Attach the dual exhaust pipe
(83B) to the exhaust pipe
connectors (83A). Insert the
linchpins on the end of the
exhaust pipe into the holes in
the connectors and press rmly
into place. The hole in the cross
bar on the exhaust must
be aligned with the
linchpin on the top
of the gearbox.
STEP 83-2
Now attach the second connector
(83A) to the right-hand exhaust
manifolds. Insert the ends of the
manifolds into the holes in the
connector.

A THOROUGHBRED THROUGH AND THROUGH
The Ford GT40 is a racing beast, a thoroughbred racing car, as demonstrated by its countless
victories on the circuits over the years. The engine of your model is an exact reproduction of the
4.9-litre engine of the GT Mk 1 that won the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1969.
This model is a perfect reproduction of the
GT40, thanks to the miniature reproduction of
the car’s details, both inside and out.
· 4-1 dual exhaust
· Four Weber twin-barrel
carburettors
· Mid, longitudinally mounted
engine
· Eight cylinders (V8)
· 4.9 cc

STEP 85-3
Now position the distributor
(84A) on the engine block.
Ensure that all of the spark
plug wires are inside the
engine, as shown in the
photo. Secure the distributor
to the base with one FD01
screw.
STEP 85-2
Attach one of the spark plug wires (85A) to one
of the free outer linchpins on the distributor
(84A). Now attach the remaining wires. Now
that the ignition switch wire and eight spark
plug wires are all in place, the distributor is
complete.
STEP 85-1
Get the distributor (84A) you
received with the previous
pack. Attach the ignition
switch wire – the shortest of
the wires you received with
this pack – to the central
linchpin on the distributor,
pressing it rmly into place.

STEP 85-4
Find the connection points for
the spark plug wires in the
left cylinder head (76A) - as
shown - and the right cylinder
head (78A). These four small
terminals – numbered in the
photo – are located near the
base of the manifold. Divide
the wires into two groups
of four, leaving the ignition
switch wire (85B) in the
middle.
STEP 85-6
Now feed the other
three wires on the
right side through
the manifolds and
attach them to the
free terminals.
STEP 85-5
Take one of the back wires (84B) from the right
side and feed it through the manifolds. Now
attach the wire to the furthest terminal, in this
case the one closest to the wheel.
