Another grade my welds post ;)
 

Here is a pic of a log manifold I did for a customer that was waiting 2 months, overall I think he should be happy with the outcome.
This manifold was fully backpurged http://www.jg-fab.com/images/logmanifold.jpg
This just goes to show that good things come to those who wait....
Yes I do not make manifolds as fast as many people (each log takes me 6 hours to build) but as you can see alot of time and effort go into each into making sure they are perfect. Yes there are still the letters on the wg tube, I had acetoned it after the pic to clean that off
If this is how good my log manifolds come out, think of how good my $1000 top mounts come out, hopefully this will be a bit inspiring for those who are still waiting for their orders

pics of my flux madness tomorrow. Wow your so great you can weld like totally awesome. 2 month wait for a log uh not worth the wait

Re: Another grade my welds post ;)
 

nice... you should of done some before cleaning/in the process pics of the manifold being built.

Re: Another grade my welds post ;)
 

Pretty hot. Incredible welds. Mind sharing some pics of your purge setup?

I do have a suggestion, more in regards to the turbo flange... I've used several of those T3 log flanges that you guys make and I've found that if I cut the hole for them as deep as the one you have there I can't fit very much of a turbo on it. Had issues with the compressor housing hitting on a 50trim T3/T04E. I actually had to cut the holes shallow and bridge the gap with the weld.

I'm going to be ordering some more flanges in the next week or so and was wondering if you could take a little nugget of advice and make them out of 1" instead of ~.685".

Re: Another grade my welds post ;)
 

gonna have to agree there. no welds make a log mani worth a 2 month wait.

Re: Another grade my welds post ;)
 

I'm not sure about turbo fitment as you mentioned but I would be wee bit concerned about the flange being such an obstruction on the inside of the outer runners. It seems as though it would impede flow unless the flange is radiused which would not be visible in the pic.
Otherwise I'm jealous of your welds :)

Re: Another grade my welds post ;)
 

Yeah what about people waiting 6+ months for manifolds, now thats some bullshit. 2 months is what should be expected in all serisousness.

Re: Another grade my welds post ;)
 

i wanted pics of the inside too ???

Re: Another grade my welds post ;)
 

for a simple log manifold design no

Re: Another grade my welds post ;)
 

A log take about 2 hours tops. Now granted mine aren't as pretty as James' but I also charge a lot less. 2 months huh? Beautiful manifold though. I actually haven't made a log in so long I can't remember. Only Ram horns and Mini rams.

Re: Another grade my welds post ;)
 

verry nice. I only with my welds were like that. :o

Re: Another grade my welds post ;)
 

nice welds, manis are pricey but you get what you paid for

Re: Another grade my welds post ;)
 

What kind of welding machine are you using? Those are some nice welding..

Re: Another grade my welds post ;)
 

When you make the turbo inlet flange, do you notch it for the side tubes to come in? I was just taking a close look at your manifold and it seems like if that flange isnt notched your flow you dramatically decrease. That is where most of the hot gasses are and they would running into the side of your flange.

Re: Another grade my welds post ;)
 

damn, two months for a log? it is REALLY nice though

Re: Another grade my welds post ;)
 

just saw you post on HT those topmounts look sexy
