Re:Shots of the Custom Manifold completed
 

I wish I knew how to weld. Nice job Jeff!

Re:Shots of the Custom Manifold completed
 

I didnt do that... :-[

That was all Blacksi (beau)'s work

I just provided the flanges

Jeff

Re:Shots of the Custom Manifold completed
 

I think Beau made that.

Re:Shots of the Custom Manifold completed
 

You beat me to it by 11 secs >:(

Re:Shots of the Custom Manifold completed
 

NICE ass hell :o
btw:why do you cut slots in the boltholes for?

Re:Shots of the Custom Manifold completed
 

very very nice...how many hours did that take?

Re:Shots of the Custom Manifold completed

Re:Shots of the Custom Manifold completed
 

When everything heats up, people have experiencd the studs to shear right off the head, So pretty much all the new manifolds will be like this.. All of Full race's manifolds do this as well.

Jeff

Re:Shots of the Custom Manifold completed
 

Damnit! you stole my manifold idea! .. that I stole from the same person that you stole it from... *shrug*
I need some flanges..


-H

Re:Shots of the Custom Manifold completed
 

And where would I go about aquiring one of those flanges?

-Dustin

Re:Shots of the Custom Manifold completed
 

jeff , what did you guys use for the tubing? is it a bunch of differant angled weld-els..and how much better is this compared to a log style,,benefits?

Re:Shots of the Custom Manifold completed
 

the flanges can be bought at cheapturbo.com

the weld els can be bought from www.mcmaster.com

We have never used a log manifold, so I couldnt compare them.

Jeff

Re:Shots of the Custom Manifold completed
 

WOW!!! What kind of welder was used? When I made mine it turned out all sloppy cause I used a MIG welder without gas-I used flux core wire....

Re:Shots of the Custom Manifold completed
 

Yeah, flux-core is downright dirty! That manifold was made with TIG...

Re:Shots of the Custom Manifold completed
 

Wow... BTW... is that SS 304L schedule 40 1.5 inch BUTt to BUTt welds pipes?

Look really good!

Re:Shots of the Custom Manifold completed
 

that looks really hard to bolt up to the head. very nice though. you guys should start selling them for a good price. HINT HINT less then $300 HINT HINT

Re:Shots of the Custom Manifold completed
 

hard to bolt to the head? nah, look at one of the holes for the turbo mount flange.. that is going to be impossible.. lol I think beau is going to weld a nut on the backside of it.

Jeff

Re:Shots of the Custom Manifold completed
 

that looks like a job for mac knuckle saver wrenches

Re:Shots of the Custom Manifold completed
 

Cool. Beau, yous be gettin good at dat weldin shiznit.

Re:Shots of the Custom Manifold completed
 

very sexy manifold!!!!

Re:Shots of the Custom Manifold completed

Re:Shots of the Custom Manifold completed
 

Is this referred to as 'Nordic Ghetto'?

Re:Shots of the Custom Manifold completed
 

huked oon ebonics wurkd fur jIm

Beau

Re:Shots of the Custom Manifold completed
 

kick ass manifizold, make one for a D-series that would be even more kick ass. Then you could build a kick ass turbo kit, and then go kick some ass with your kick ass turbo kit with your kick ass manifizold. That would be kick ass. I was just seeing how many times I could say kick ass. ;D

Re:Shots of the Custom Manifold completed
 

I can weld em up nicer with a mig.. 8) haha

Nice job..

I think that u-bends would have gotten you there with alot
less weld joints tho.

Re:Shots of the Custom Manifold completed
 

"I can weld em up nicer with a mig.."

hey wild man lick my nuts >:(

Beau

Re:Shots of the Custom Manifold completed
 

Hey Im just messin.. You do a nice job on your stuff, I've seen your work..

Iv'e been welding for 25 years and my headers are not as nice as they could be.. :D

Re:Shots of the Custom Manifold completed
 

jeff what size pipe did you guys use for the manifold and how think of the wall is it?

Re:Shots of the Custom Manifold completed
 

hey wildman ive been welding for about a year and a half so i think its ok
