I need to buy a die grinder or something like that, I went out and bought a nikota rotary tool today and the grinding ---- on that sucks ***, I broke one of the grinder things and I dulled up the miller so bad it has trouble milling the fiberglass I used to do my custom gauge mount (you'll just have to wait for pics of that)

I ground all the welds down today that I could get to, I need to get that die grinder, finish grinding, weld all the leaks at the flange, drill out the flange holes, fix one of the holes that was a little off when I drilled the t3 flange pattern into the chrysler t3, then just get that ---- bolted up and work out all the little ---- that remains.

Me and Albert put my flange up against the side of his chop saw (the spinny black thing that we cut exhaust pipes with) and flattened it out. It was pretty easy, but it might be easier to run it over with your car. lol. hahaha

I tried standing on it after I welded it, but it still came out crooked.

my dad probably has a belt sander, but with this manifold I don't really care if it's flat. as soon as I get the LS block finished I'm going to make another manifold and get a bigger turbo.
