Re: how to fill a gap, hmt style
 

i think i did that once just not as hardcore. HMT is so ghetto we can't go to advance auto and get 2.5-2" reducers :6

Re: how to fill a gap, hmt style
 

If you're going to keep it super HMT. Take some metal coat hangers & use them as filler rod.

Wow..

Re: how to fill a gap, hmt style
 

i was expecting somthign totally different. i thought i was going to see some crappy write up on bridging and then i saw that bad boy. may be better ways that are cheaper out there.. but none are probly as quick as chucking a bolt in there bahaha. like said before... setting new hmt standard O0

Re: how to fill a gap, hmt style
 

i wouldn't run that. there is hmt and ------. that is ------, to spend more in weld and hardware, than to just take a minute to do it a little less ------.

^ coming from the person who built a manifold out of fencepost?

haha i'm quotin that ---- O0

Re: how to fill a gap, hmt style
 

hey, it was easier AND cheaper. materials vs time vs aesthetics, i won all of those hands down. it was basically to prove the ole 'stop using fencepost for fucks sake!' on chargepiping, and make a manifold out of it. outside of right angles and poor flow, some bends and a little work would have made a nice flowing manifold.

Re: how to fill a gap, hmt style
 

it cost barely anything, 1 bolt, 3 nuts from just my junk draw of billions of nuts/bolts. there isnt that much weld, the flow isnt poor because its going from the little side to the big side not vice versa.

why do people think this cost a lot? theres one bead of weld around everything, i welded the 2" piece in and then bent the 2.5" as close to the 2" piece i could by wacking it with a hammer. why wouldnt you run it? you ran pvc charge pipes.

Re: how to fill a gap, hmt style
 

It would have been better if you just cut slits on the bigger pipe and reduce the diameter to 2" then weld the slits after. Thats how I made my own reducer.
