After the manifold is done and proven I'll start a new topic on it under forced induction. Please note; this will be SEVERAL months from now! Probably mid-end of racing season. Then I'll be taking names of those who want one and will contact you. Thank you for your interest! :welder:

No problem. As for the rest of you who are looking for a good turbo manifold for your 1.6 DOHC (it'll be for the b6t). I'm custom fabricating mine and having it ceramic coated. If it works out well, doesn't crack, etc... I'll be fabricating extras and selling them. I'm currently trying to get my hands on an affordable tig welder for my own use. Untill then I'll have to use a friend of mines machine shop. His car is pushing 1120HP ALL MOTOR and turns the 1/8th mile around 5sec. Anyway the manifolds I'm doing can have what ever turbo flange you want welded onto it. As for pricing etc... I won't know until after I'm done w/ mine. :welder:

Can't remember if it is a Firebird, or if it is a Trans Am. It's a 454 which he built using all the other local pro guys used "trash" parts. He ended up setting new track records with thier old parts! He KNOWS his stuff!! He is my Dad's age and has been BUILDING WINNING race motors since he was 15 years old! He's a really great guy, which I've learned a GREAT deal from. :welder:

I'm coming out of the woodwork and bringing this back from the dead to pose a question: Where are all the fast MX-3's? This isn't meant to be dickish but to inspire...
I build my B6T MX-3 over 2 years while I was in highschool with only a low paying part time job. You can read the initial post to see how it did. But that was 4 years ago! I was sure that there would be a multitude of high-powered B-series MX-3's tearing up the tracks by now. But it seems like most everyone (k-series included) is stuck in the 13's. whats the deal?

lol :) it's because us mx-3er's are a poor bunch of mofo's :)

Also, my mx-3 is my DD, so I can't get too roudy with it, like I did with my Nova.

cheers man...
