Who makes those yellow mock-up tube pieces you are building your manifold with? Are they plastic and do they just click together? They are brilliant. Never seen them before.
Fantastic work!

codrulz · 07-25-2010, 06:22 AM

thats a chamber for the exhaust gas recirculation system. there are drillings in the exhaust ports then the gasses are passed through to the inlet side of the head.

looking good Leo. i like the mock manifolds, such a simple way of working out clearences

i expect you'll be finished way before mines even near so i'll keep watching your thread with great interest. can i ask why you decided on a Coupe in the end? and i envy your workshop, mines still stuck in a tiny lockup but at the moment i'm making the inlet manifold to take a pair of Webers.

masDB8ter · 07-31-2010, 01:56 AM

interesting way to dummy up headers. what are you using? nice build thread

sOl_rOjo · 07-31-2010, 05:43 AM
