Tubular manifolds?

[RedZMonte]

Back from the grave AHAHAHA!

anyhow, here is a clean setup fierofiend has on his L67 fiero.. i like the design.. i think i might get some flanges made and maybe try builing something simmilar (except more compact)... Anyone have any LQ1 '91-'95 header flanges?



Here are a set of Holden V6 turbo manifolds i found as well..

There was someone a long while back that sold them that lived in Canada. I want to say betterthanyou, but I'm probably wrong because it's been forever.

Wow. I really like that design. I don't have 95 header flanges, but I do have 96-97 header flanges. I used one for a custom log I had made for the rear head and the other two were for a potential tubular setup.

well i guess step one... Find a set of flanges/Make a set of flanges
Step 2 order some bends
Step 3 make some manifolds
Step 4
Step 5 redyno
Step 6 sell old parts! recoupe some of the money

Mine won't be that fancy, they will be very nice and compact, shorter runners. Its already a PITA to work on. Will be all stainless steel this time (doesn't put off as much heat).

Shane I am all over this. If you want I can work with you on it. I can get the parts pretty cheap as I make them,lol. Anything from flanges to TIG welding. I would love to have a nice header set-up, its goona be a little hard to keep them from catching the bay on fire.

If you want to work with me on this I think we could make one bad ass set-up.

That's no good. If I wanted that, I would just swap in an L67 and do some brake checks at the end of the 1/4.

[d.o.h.c]

Well, if they are ceramic coated, they should be just fine.

Mark

[pocket-rocket]

Btw, that was called sarcasm, but ceramic coating would be a welcomed feature

[d.o.h.c]

Rocket, I know man.lol.

[RedZMonte]

im down. I need the head flanges i can do the rest as far as fabbing up the manifolds and whatnot. Stainless and Coating or header wrap will keep it cool enough.. on my car there is not alot on the front or the rear to burn/melt so im not worried about heat. Once its made i can duplucate it and send it to you, should be easy to replicate.

Or some heat shields would go a long way..

I made a set myself.

[d.o.h.c]

Shane I am going to stick with my 94 heads, are you ok with the heads on your car? I will have 4 SS flanges made here in the need week or so. Shoot me your addy and I will send them to you. If you wanna have everything tack welded and ship them to me, I can have my welder finish the welding. he is pretty freaking amazing. I can pull my crossover if need be. I want it to bolt up to the same location right now. My DP is mandrel so I am good there.

Guu! I like thoes If i had the clearance on the rear fire wall i would build a sweet set like thoes. Mark i will PM you for thoes flanges. Holset Turbo? 4" downpipe... is this car running or? I dig the setup, would love to see what she is putting out.

Sweet, i will get the other bits and pieces ordered and on the way. I talked to my guy and it looks like it should be pretty easy. I will get pics as they are built.
