Probably good that you didn't......as you can tell, I wouldn't have had much time to BS around

crossover pipe now tacked up on the mock-up engine...

actually, it is a flex piece and intentionally. It will outlast a solid piece because of the weight of the turbo (it's larger than normal) will put stress on the welds in a solid pipe application even with a brace. So it will work perfectly.

i know its not supposed to be a solid piece...never said it was...but i did say that it will not last that long...meaning it will leak within 6 weeks to 6 months...take your pick....i meant to use a flex from an import car like a nissan stanza etc. with the woven braided flex made out of stainless

not sure on that one, but the guy that's making them has been designing his own turbo headers/exhaust for a few years now on several different vehicles. He recommends it, so I guess I'll have to find out the hard way

Headers are now shipped, and I just need to finalize the setup with deciding on placement for the wastegate, and get the oil return line piped into the oil pan. Then we're ready to roll. These pics are of it mounted on a mock-up engine and yeah, that's an older 4t60 transmission in the pics.

hope so, it was test fit into a GA since he didn't have an alero to go by when tacking them up. lets pray

btw jturkey....I didn't mean to sound like a rooster before. I sometimes leave out the details behind what I'm thinking. I dont think those headers would be a good idea for N/A due to runner diameters and final merged diameter. I think a little more flow restriction would be better suited to the scavanging effect on an N/A application. I may be wrong, but I'm pretty sure a smaller diameter setup would be better for the non-turbo apps. That on top of...if I were making a header setup for N/A I would re-think the routing all together to prevent too much of a U-turn. that's why the GP's use a "U-bend delete" pipe.

i agree, well the front bank would work..LOL, the guy did an awesome job, what size are the primaries?...it looks to be a 3" dp, and the clamps are first rate. i feel sorry for the trans, then after that is built, then it would be the tires...BTW, how familiar are you getting with the tuner

heh, me too.....I've purchased a tranny that I think will hold quite a bit longer than my original, but we'll see.

I'm getting decent with the tuner so far. The concept isn't foreign to me, but some of the modifiers for the base tables can get tricky, especially if your engine is governed by more than two fuel modifying criteria at a time.
