Collector
 Inside of collector  New Tig Welder   Ebay manifold I bought for reference on making a jig to build my own manifold. I hope no body actually runs one of these things. can you say restriction and can you even call that a collector?

If you don't mind a suggestion, I'd advise against using that ebay manifold as a template...even for a jig. To begin with, it's a poor copy of an HKS T04R/Z header, with an absolutely terrible wastegate port design. Secondly, there's really no need to position the turbo exactly as HKS chose to mount it. The best way, to me, would be to put the engine into an engine bay and use the inner fender, firewall, motor mount, and hood as your only restrictions. Be sure to leave room for a proper wastegate exhaust flow, your downplipe, your intercooler pipe coming off the turbo, and your intake air plumbing. It's tougher to do it this way, but you won't be restricted (or corrupted) by the significant limitations of that design. Regardless, I wish you good luck in your very ambitious project.

Yea I agree on the comment about using for an exact jig reference. I should say that I was just going to use it for reference when needed and not make the jig EXACTLY to it. I am going to built it to the car when the motor is able to be put in and am going to cut up the ebay one and change the locations to more match the new manifold im building for future reference.
I got the block ready and am next going to put on the oil pump, head and accessories. |
