Made a turbo manifold for my brothers FD.
Short runners, SS pipe, CS flange.
Welded with a Hobart ez Tig.
First time Tig welding a manifold.

Working on the first runner.


Working on it. Bolted to flanges and another manifold to help with distortion.


Pretty much finished, want to do a little bit more to it though.




How its gonna go on the engine.

That is what this whole sub forum is for. Everyone can have their own thread if they would like! Yeeehaw!
Perfectly capable of reading on my own, thank you. All fabrication takes time and work, but the results/progress are not always worth creating a new thread for. Perhaps not everyone wants their own thread and would sometimes prefer to post in a general 'latest work' thread, as is the case on many other forums. If so, great. If not, thread dies.

Personally, I would rather see individual threads on each project...

This is purely to keep information orderly and easier to search.

GIGANTIC threads eat up a lot of resources for parsing.
In this case, this thread just started, but if it keeps getting larger and larger, then searching through the entire thread becomes inefficient.

If you still don't like that idea, you're welcome to start a thread on YOUR projects only...
This way, you can keep track of your stuff, and it keeps you from starting a new thread for "smaller" stuff?

It seems there are certain parties who have a PERSONAL beef with me.
I welcome them in PM's; keep that shit off public threads.
This is an official warning.

TECH sub-forums are for TECH discussions.
I'll let certain OT content, but when it overwhelms the Subject, then I feel I need to step in and clean up threads.

Rules of Conduct has been STICKIE'd in here now.
Read it if you are not sure.
