What's going on guys? I just received my T4 -> T3 adapter from Jon@ MDC and it's gorgeous. The welds are some of the best I've seen. This guy can make just about anything. So thanks again Jon. I can't wait to get my new elbow. :evil2:

erm... hey, Jon, why nothing to smooth the flow? From the pictures, it looks like you started with flange A, welded the connecting square(ish) tube at 1/2 the twist needed, and finished with flange B?

Maybe fill the area in front of the flange alittle, and cut it down at an angle, to smooth the flow?

Awesome welds, btw. I mean, that looks like a machine did it!

Not knocking on it AT ALL - just curious, that's all.

^^^i was thinking the same thing. dont get me wrong, it looks great. but if i were doing it i would hit the inside edges of the flanges with a grinder and a file, just so it was smooth.

Yep, I agree and it's already being done. I broke out the Dremel and it's coming out really well. We spoke and Jon stated it completely slipped his mind. No big deal, I actually like adding my touch to the parts going on my cars.

This will bolt onto any T4 flanged manifold.....Somestimes I just wish I would have found a T3 style manifold in the first place, but hey can't change it now.
