Good job gentlemen but they are correct you did waste a lot of pipe.
I'm looking forward to seeing the rest of the manifold so be sure to document your progress.
Best of luck

lol the haters posting up.... what they dont show you is their first tries at the same thing, where there first 55 of them didnt work out at all.

im not hating, thats a better job than 90 percent of people on here could do, but its still not exactly the right way to do it, thats all im saying

i've never tried making a collector but i'm going to try in a few days but i def will not be cutting 4 1ft pieces

This is the best collector-making writeup I've ever seen online.

Did the two halves warp after they were tigged? Mine did, but it's nothing a 10" belt sander couldnt fix.

you obviously havent seen shitbirds writeup.

also this is why you tack the 4 pieces together, then weld it when its all one piece, so it doesnt warp and shift when your weldign it.
