Frankspeed Manifold rising from the ashes!

Hello!

I have aquired a second manifold for my cg10 and want to cut and re weld it to make it less restrictive ala Frankspeed, have seen a few pictures but just wondered if anyone had any others, or any descriptions to add to ensure I'm on the right path!

From what I can tell it's a case of cutting out the y shaped section and fabricating a thinner steel piece and welding it back on (with bosses for sensors etc)

Just can't help feeling I'm missing something! So any pictures or descriptions would help!

Also once I get underway I would post a guide/log of how I did it if people were interested!

Cheers!

the fillet piece needs to be heavily shaped (3d/roof shaped) and grind the sides out where the flow is restricted
and i did the last few in 1.5mm stainless with stainless rods, so longer lasting than the 2mm mild steel ones

:) some cast iron just wont take weld, i welded a little honda mani once and the weld literally fell off ! but the cg mani,s weld really nice
and i find that stainless rods give a much neater weld personally
