Re: Titanium manifold mounted on car

He has another thread on this fab. I'm still having a hard time seeing how it all fits in a Mini Cooper though. I want some further back pics please.

it doesn't have to be in a chamber.

It just has to have the gas on both sides of the weld. I believe he purged it as you would stainless.

I'm gonna have to jump on this band wagon by saying this is truly a work of art. :D

I would love to know what that cost but by no means feel obligated to state the price.

Re: Titanium manifold mounted on car

Nice and very cool.. very nice fabrication.. But I would have had some flex sections in there.. Hope it won´t crack like it is when the differnt parts expand by the heat..
