Your supercharger I meant

If you change the TB let me know as I still can't find mine

 

[pork]

You wouldn't want it mate, I crushed of a few pipes and blanked some other idle stuff, just basically a butterfly valve and that's it

best for MIG is argon + co2

 

[SirChris]

is it? I thought there were mixes suited to varying metals and their thickness'?

 

[andre_f_carvalho]

and TIG its only argon, on MIG the misture with 2 gas (argon+co2) because argon are more expensive, this is what we usually use where I work , now do not know what percentage of each in the bottle

[pork]

Never tried stick welding tbh mate

[SirChris]

frank says its not his forte... well... me and pork are ****ed lol

 

[h701micra]

Too much is based on appearance. Chances are if it has good penetration and no porosity then its good

 

[Noddie]

Iv done a bit of DC stick welding lately. its a breeze, better than MIG imo unless you are doing <1mm. That SS stuff looks very nice Frank, did you get any warping of the flanges?

arc penetrates better imo ed and yes the flanges did curl their toes a bit as you can see, but luckily its in the right direction for squashing the gasket when the nuts are pulled down
neil will be doing some stainless welding on his kit-form mani too (when i can find his postal addy )

 

[pork]

Oops, sent mate lol

Almost impossible to stop SS warping unless you bolt it down to a jig iv found.

If you can get yourself a chunky aluminium plate or brass plate. It'll soak the heat away before warping can occur

 

[pork]

Got mani pipes through today, cheers frank!

Got stainless plate to make up some flanges


Not sure when I'm putting it all together as I'm moving house within next 2 weeks (at last!)
It's a 'do-er up-er' lol
So ginna take a while

Haha a spare hour. In an hour I could maybe plug the welder in and think about what to do with it. Nice work mate can't wait till its finished

 

[pork]

Make me an offer for mine if you like, mot runs out on the 2nd though

 

[pork]

I'm looking at cars around the £100-200 mark mate


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

 

[karlj]

That's fair enough, I'd let it go for £300 but that'd be the lowest I could realistically do

 

[pork]

I wish mate, yours is super clean

I literally hav no money (house consumes all)

Lucky I still have all running gear from last car.....so really only need a rolling shell

[pork]

Had a start on welding the manifold up,

I leafy the flanges quite big so it didn't warp, il grind them down later

Never welded stainless before, not toooo bad

Quick look of how things will look.....will be putting charge cooler between charger and inlet

I thought you were selling up for a flat dude

 

[pork]

I thought you were selling up for a flat dude

I was selling my flat for a house

Now have house, and done all major renovations, (kitchen, bathroom, phoebes room)

I've got a man shed now too


No one bought all my engine stuff, so all I need is a rolling shell and bolt all this stuff that's sitting here doing nothing in
