Nice pictures.

Were you able to do the job with Tubing that you bought or do you have access to equipment to bend the Tubing yourself?
The same with the Flanges; did you make or purchase them.

Thx 911,

It's mandrel bent exhaust tubing, you buy it in a 180 degree U bend then just cut the bends and weld as necessary. Hence the unnecessary looking 3 welds in the tubing. summitracing.com has them for ~$20 per 180 mandrel.

How fortuitous it what you had the stock on hand. That's probably the best way to do that. I think having a gradual step up would be better for flow instead of the smaller pipe dumping into that large T3 opening.


He cut the old trap ox flanges out and used them. The good thing is those flanges are not cast iron, so he can weld them up those pipe pieces.
