actually the welds are about 1/8th- 1/4th inch wide. i also use alot of filler rod and usually end up penetrating so deep that sometimes i burn holes and then have to go and die grind them smooth. do rember i have only be tigging for aboit 4 months now also i am not an expert at it. thanks for your concern though

any pictures of it sittin on an engine with a snail attached?

 

i'd like to see pics of these on ef platforms and eg platforms to not a/c clearence.

a/c compatible w/ eg, ef, ek

 

ac compatibility will be with eg's, ek's,and dc's. also i wasnt able to get pictures of the manifold on an engine yesterday so i will do my best to get some this evening. right now i am answering this message from school. thanks

so one manifold will support all of those turbos?
that would be awesome.
you have a pic of the flange?

 

whitey rice.. are you serious? If so no, the manifold can't use all those different type of turbo's. It depends on what flange you ask for. If you ask for a Garret T3 flange you'll be able to use T3's T3/4, etc.

 

ya, i'm ginuwine ly serious. your 3rd post?
the usual problem with the typical t3 flanges is that they are not tall/wide enough for the volvo circular cutout, chrysler offset bolt pattern, and t4 pattern. if it were big enough, you could have room for all of the bolt patterns.

 

The flange we are making is going to be tall/wide enough and drilled and tapped for all the bolt patterns. the port for the turbine inlet will be for a T3 Turbonetics (which is 15% larger than the Garrett) so if you want maximum preformance you will need to port match the manifold for a T4. If you are using a Garrett T3 you may want to port match the Turbine inlet of the Turbo for it as well. Due to bolt hole overlap, the Mopar and T4 Bolt holes will be reduced from 10MM to 8MM (perhaps all bolt holes will be 8MM). This is the best compromises available for this sort of flange.
