this is how the inside of a collector should look... nice work.

In those middle pics it appears to be quite a bit lower than the rad support.

Hard to tell from any of the engine bay pics, I was just juding it by the 1st pic. We are building a few of these and hood clearance is definitely a think to keep in mind.

Looks very nice, love that design!
The only problem with shortys and D-series motors, is the turbo hangs low making for a very short oil return line. Post pics of the turbo on with a front shot of the pan to see the height difference..
Fit and welding looks killer!

Does it clear the hood? Do you really think i would finish weld a manifold that hits the hood, lol....it fits fine.......and there is more than enough room for the return line. Thx guys!

Re: RMS does the D SERIES! (Lamchop0000)
Why the decision to go with such profound #2 an #3 runners. Such a large arc isn't necessary, just wondering what decision prompted going that route. Also, the #1 and #4 runners are quite different but the collector is centered, what happened? It seems like you could have went with a little taller collector.
Overall, it's a good lookin mani, there's just those few things that stand out to me. I'm all about collector quality as well though. I port all my collectors...glad to see everyone appreciates the attention to detail in yours.

Thanks RC000E for the compliments....i am a perfectionist so i do everything i can to make the manifold better. I really dont have a reason for the design really i just wanted to make a bottom mount d series manifold that had some longer runners and not some backpressure crazy "log style" that u usually see. And I HATE tall collectors. TheY hinder my ability to come up with cool designs cuz they take up too much space. Another reason i dont like taller collectors is that the exhaust velocity will stay higher with a shorter collector and less likely to become turbulent cuz it goes straight into the turbo.......hope that answers some ?'s. Def anxious to build some more of these...I LOVE THE D!

Re: (Teglove2)
Well, I wouldn't want to turn this into any kind of collector convergence angle conflict, so I'll just go with a "to each his own" on the collector subject.

He does...well I know on mine he did for a fact. I haven't seen him make one and not do it that way.
