Here is some more recent fab I've been doing, I've got more pics of it but don't have the camera with me right now.

 

Sick dude. MOREEEEEE!!! lol

 

 

interesting manifold design there. are you going to support the turbo?
worried about the oil return? looks iffy

 

Yea it's all taken care of. The oil return is handled by a scavenge pump and the turbo is braced. The manifold design is essentially the best we could do with the engine bay...there is very little room in the engine bay, and the car is a street car so the manifolds will be plenty for the goals of the car.

 

Damn! That should be fast as hell, I did a LS1 swap into a 1990 and with just headers it hauled ***! Did you make the mounts?

 

Naw I think the subframe is from hinson

 

I used a modified older Granny's kit my customer at the time had, needed to space it and make some cuts etc for the LS1 (it was for a SBC). Have fun with the exhaust if you are running it all the way back, I ran two 3" tubes off the headers to a Y behind the tranny, clearance is very tight, I had to put a big circle piece in the tranny crossmember to fit the damn pipe through on the drivers' side.

 

i really like that mani. very simple

 

That thing is going to do nothing but smoke tires. Right on.

 

We're running a single 4" aluminum exhaust

 

thats sick man.. thats not 16g is it?

 

Nice man. Manifold is getting it done.

 

Are you talking about a big 16G? Because i'm not sure what they look like, but i had a small 16G on my 92 Eclipse, and that turbo looks nothing like my old small 16G.

 

Very nice work. And no thats not a 16g lol. Thats a big 67mm precision turbo.

 

no, not a evo 3 16g haha

16-guage metal thickness

 

Oh, i'm thinkin' turbo. Silly me.

 

I guess that header is cool if you're going for some kind of Deusenberg look or something. It's basically a log manifold.

 

not rly... since log manifolds are just Tee's

 

Space constraints limited our header building.

 

I'm sure it was tight in the engine bay, and I don't see any exhaust gasses being fired at eachother in this manifold...

 

Karl Buchka from Massachusetts, read the thread plz.

Nice work man!

 

Karl stay on turbobricks man.. this place has no love for bricksters like yourself..
j/k

 

Well the car ran a 12.9 on its first pass ever down the track, after a little adjustment ran a 12.0, and then the rain stopped our attempts for the night. I think we can get an 11.5 out of it tomorrow.

 

thats it? what kinda power is it making? if that's on those street tires pictured i guess thats good.
