Always best to clean the metal first https://honda-tech.com/forums/images/smilies/emthup.gif
Edit: is that valve cover new https://honda-tech.com/forums/images...s/emsmilep.gif |
|
metal was clean, what's the point?
valve cover was cleaned, i'm too lazy to take my alternator out and pressure wash the engine bay, i do a little too much mudding at times and fluxcore madness... is fluxcore madness. why take away from it? |
Re: (c0mpl3x)

yeah. not having a bandsaw that will cut is a pain. hacksaw, tinsnips, bench/bent grinder, and 3lb ballpene hammer were what built this manifold, along with a hobart handler 140 .035 fluxcore mig.
the runners off of 1 and 2 were stick welded, china import welder, 100amp 220v, but used it around 60-80 on 5/64 rods, 6011 series, the entire time. the flange warped like crazy, me/my friend went to get some food and came back and were like wtf? it warped 1/4" as is seen, so i busted out the oxy/propane torch and cut a flange off of a failed header of his, welded it on. next day my bends/flange came in from racing solutions.. |

Re: (badeg4)
not really... you weld what you can cut.
|
Re: (c0mpl3x)
are you expecting that thing to last ?
|
Re: (badeg4)
it has no reason, other than looking like shit because my friend didn't have a wire wheel, or any wire brushes that we could find (no idea why, sand blaster wasn't working either https://honda-tech.com/forums/images...s/emthdown.gif ), it's solid.
how is something braced and solid supposed to not last? its better than modifying the stock manifold for boost.. |

Its certainly not ideal... but I bet it'll work. https://honda-tech.com/forums/images/smilies/emthup.gif

Re: (badeg4)
no, more fencepost. it's about a 12ga (im guessing around a sch25) steel, quite a good blend for some reason. steel is steel, it doesn't melt until what, 1900º? 800 degrees or not, doesn't matter https://honda-tech.com/forums/images...es/emsmile.gif

having the harsh 90 degree bends will create hot spots that will expand and contract more than the straight sections. Just the nature of it will make it crack over time. You say you're mudding a lot. Shake it around a bit and you're adding to the weakness. I've seen things more stupiid than that work before, so I wouldn't be surprised if it worked, but you could do a lot better if you put about $50 into it.
If you want it to last and be reliable, do it right. If this is on a weekend warrior that you don't give a rat's ass about, hack it and have fun for free. Lets see the beast this thing is in. |

this is worse than the shit on home made turbo dot com!
i laughed my ass off at the soup can comment. honestly, i once thought of making exhaust out of copper water pipe, i thought it wouldnt rust, i diddnt have a welder, but i had a propane torch and solder. that actually wasnt a bad idea! hahahah |
Re: (c0mpl3x)
this place has a stock 22rte turbo manifold for $75
http://www.pdq4parts.com/ for a t3 flange http://www.well.com/~mosk/Adap....html but you still get a https://honda-tech.com/forums/images/smilies/emthup.gif for making you own |
Re: (FUCATYPR)
