Tim, what's wrong with redoing your lower radiator hose? I did a simple job of mine.
It just goes down around a few things and then back up. I forget what hose I used but it had a nice simple j-hook shape. I then mated it to the cut stock hose with a dual barb end connector of the appropriate size from mcmaster.

you want my mig? it's not worth it. there are better ones with variable current (not switches to make you angry) for about what I paid. it does do 110VAC though which is nice for light stuff.
there's an ad in grassroots motorsports for a 110v eastwood for 299 if you mention the magazine.

seems like a decent deal.

**** dawg, mine clears, PS, AC and has an EGR bung.

only thing I dont like about it is the wastegate placement on #4. it might be possible to do a collector-sourced gate pipe but it's tight in there.
also note the size of my compressor and how it fits without a sawzall heh heh!

my manifold WAS splitimes manifold. but i will give you this...
Cleared PS no problem with a 2860RS 0.86
I then upgraded to a 2871R Tial housing and it was fine too. I never ran AC so i cant comment on that.
Edit: the hardest part was making an intake that would fit with a decent sized filter. i ended up running the filter under the headlight (headlight stationary) and the hot pipe through fender.... no decent pics of that.
Edit 2: oh yeah... i modded my PS low pressure hjose since it wouldnt work with this manifold
Edit 3: the manifold nut going on between cylinder #1 and #2 was a royal pain in the nuts to get to... figure this into future designs.

Anyway, manifold is done, I have to order a 90deg silicone 2 to 2.5" transition and a tight R 3" bend for my downpipe...I have enough scraps to do the downpipe now but if I have to wait for the silicone then I may as well also get a new fresh bend.

Tim it's time to make a collector pipe cut jig.
I'm sure you could come up with something that lets you vary the merge angle in both planes.
of course the next challenge I have for you is a twisted collector.
I will have a picture for you shortly.

Done, I hope. It was nice to finally wash off the cutoff wheel dust. It sounds the same as it's always have, not a cool boxer-ish rumble of the other brand manifold posted earlier here in this thread. Oh well. I only drove it around my block twice to make sure there was no leaks and grind off the rust on the brake disks. So far it only makes about 3psi at 2000 whereas my previous manifold, my replacement BEGI/FM tubular manifold, would make 5 or so. I may go out to get a ritas and play with it. Or I may drink some beers.
More pics here:
ABSURDflow highmount A/C P/S
ATP sent me a black silicone 90 instead of a blue which was even on the packing list in the box, oh well. I also have to throw on the toyota COPs, maybe.
