By far one of the most difficult things for me to do was the header pipe fabrication. A close second was the throttle body pipes.
Just starting the process.
I got the header flanges with a short section of piping attached back from the welder. This is where I started fabbing the headers. If only it were this easy!
Rear header flange with a section of 2″ pipe welded in place.
Just starting the process of fabbing the headers.
Not too bad yet……
Got some flanges and piping back from the welder!
The bigger one is the flang to the turbo. The smaller one is the compressor housing flange that will attach to the intake piping.
Finally got the rear header pipe back from the welder and hanging. m/
It took a few tries but I finally got 1/2 of the headers done! Small victory, but I’ll take it.
This thing is a bear! AAAHHH!!!! It’s not pretty. But it’s going to work. Don’t you judge me!! 🙂
Sh!t just got real.
Slowly coming together. Sigh.
Don’t judge me! Long time grinder, first time welder. 🙂
Headers are complete. Turbine housing is hanging! Small victory.
