LOL you know how much I like making headers so I can understand that fully Steve!

This is exactly why I decided to tow my car to the exhaust shop. After having taken and test fitted the manifold over 50 times back & forth, having twisted, turned and re arranged the runners and flanges so many times in order to get the perfect result, my patience did finally run out.

yannis you need to have welded the flanges on at least 20-30 times before you even start the pipes lmao
to be fair i am normaly very impatient but on this occasion i dont know where it came from

I feel sorry for the guy who has to sit down and weld that up. Hes going to be there for a while. Looks like alot of work going into that mani. Cant wait to see the finished product. this has definately been my favorite builds to watch. :bigthumb: keep up the good work.

Pity you don't know someone local with a mandrel bender that could use your pipes as a pattern!
