Exclusive to Mace Engineering,here we have ourdesign-registered manifold insulator to suit the Ford BA BF and FG series, fitted with the Barra I6 engines.
What are manifold insulators and what do they do?
Manifold insulators are a thermal insulating spacer that mount betweenyour engine block and intake manifold. Made from a heat blocking composite, our manifold insulators will increase power from your engine by keeping the intake cooler and increase low end torque by increasing runner length.
But how do manifold insulators keep the intake manifold cooler?
Given our manifold insulators are made from a composite material with a thermal conductivity of 0.29 W/m*K as opposed to aluminium, which has a thermal conductivity of 150 W/m*K; The difference works about to be that aluminium conducts heat 500 times higher than our composite material!
Also, with gaskets often made of steel (thermal conductivity of 20 W/m-K) placed between the upper and lower manifolds being 0.5mm thick, replacing them with a manifold insulator will conduct up to an amazing1,655 times less heat depending on the size chosen.
Our composite material also exhibits high stiffness and compressive strength, can withstand temperatures up to 150°C, and has a thermal expansion coefficient very similar to aluminium to increase sealing capabilities. In addition, the spacer can also withstand boosted conditions with ease.
Key Benefits:
- Design registered.
- Reduces charge air temperature resulting in better power consistency and detonation prevention.
- Power increase with no undesirable side effects.
- Improved low end torque by increasing runner length.
- Improved fuel economy.
- Easy to install.
- Can be used as a replacement gasket.
- Reusable.
- Proven gains at an affordable price.
Contents:
- 1 X Manifold insulator set
- 1 X Bolt pack (Included in MI605 only, refer to parts guide)
- 1 X Silicone gasket maker

Parts Guide
Please select the part number you require from the variation by utilising our vehicle fitment guide and parts guide.
Note: For FG vehicles, we only recommend this upgrade on factory turbocharged 6 cylinder engines as they run an aluminium intake manifold.
