New manifold homebrew
I had a fine hairline crack in my manifold asked about came up with a few couple of options (replacment or etd) but none here in the UK so had a go myself.
Came up with an jig idea, then chopped up and shapped some pipe (not as easy as i thought to get the fit!) Butchered a standard mani I had for the flange and got the local engineering company to make me a turbo flange. Dented the pipe close to the 'close' studs for clearence and a mate welded it up.
Fitted it all today, took it out for a drive then a bit more of a drive! seems good!
Pleased with it-here's a pic
