Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
I asked just to make sure. He mocked it up on his brother's black 1g, and it will clear. He checked to make sure it clears the hood too, since it slopes down up front. I guess I really shouldn't need to ask, as the man is a genious with this, and other things I've seen of his. His attention to detail is quite amazing. He's currently eating Chinese, and racking his brain on where to place the WG's..

Um I have seen a very similar manifold in person.
http://www.shearerfabrications.com/p...php?itemID=125
How close to equal length will this manifold be?

Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
True, very similar, as there isn't too many different ways a manifold could be made. I am not discrediting other people's work, just that he's really accomodating (as you have been) to what I have asked him to do.

Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
Oil cooler is mounted up finally. Well, for the most part. Gotta mount mount it for real once I get it all together. Gotta get my fmic from steve tomorrow, then I'll have some pipes to sell, since I can't use it. I need to order some shit from MAP, and yea..slow but surely, car will run soon enough..

Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
I need flanges and vband clamps for the exhaust, and the lower ic pipe, I still need gaskets too.

Sounds like you need more than just a few small parts: http://www.mnsportcompacts.net/forum...ad.php?t=95151

Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
Im not having luck finishing up the car yet since I haven't sold some shit I have laying around and money is short. I'll get it done when it gets done. I'd perfer sooner rather then later but it isn't looking good..

Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
Ya, I did more looking into that, and ordered that and the oil feed from ATPturbo. Thanks. Oh, and thanks for the return. Now my fear is that it will hit the collector flange on the manifold, and be difficult to plumb especially with the wg. I don't know how far the chra can be clocked in either direction either..
