Default How to make this trubo manifold( for 14b)

How do you make the turn that does down to the turbo flange would a log with flange connected straight to manifold without the turn down work with a 14b? or do i have to have that turn down for bolt clearance?

or can i used this design? or not because of how the turbo mounts?

The first one will work. I can't see the second pic so I'm not sure.

I would imagine they cut off some of each end and then welded them together.. You will have to do some calculating and figure out how much you need to take off. I can tell you first hand that making one like that is very tough without certain tools. How do you plan to cut the holes for the center two runners? Do you have a band saw? cutting the els with a chop saw is difficult.
