Looks really nice man, but the welds near the port flange looks all messed up. Looks like you welded a lil too much. Anyways the design looks tight. Hope it works out and post pics of when it's done.

do you think that the different runners are better than equal length or was it just easier to make that way?

very nice job, by the way.

do you make manifolds normally because it looks like you did that one pretty easily.?

It looks purdy, especially for DIY. I have the same question as everyone else though about the equal length VS non equal length issue...

im not sure on the equal lenght issue. But if you really take a close look at the full race, sst, nekin style manifolds...they're really not true equal length. Runner 2 and 3 are longer....correct me if im wrong but thats what i see..


pimpinintegratyper, its the 2nd one i've made

Wow Wow! Looks very nice!

How easy was it to work and weld around those tight spaces? Any problems at all?

It reminds me of the old ramhorns.

It's beautiful. Does it flow as well/good as it looks?
