my intake manifold project
this is what a dremel, electric sander, sandpaper, sore hands, a Tig Welder, metal polish, towels, water, and like 15 hours will get ya:
(pics dont quite do it justice and the runners need more work)

Re: my intake manifold project

its a stocker with the outside polished. The welding came into play in the front, i cut off the pcv vacuum tap and had it shut. was trying to go for a nice smooth outside so i cut off almost anything that was not needed lol.
the insides of the runners are not done yet but i am just doing a mild polish with the dremel. i hate trying to get that stupid flexible shaft peice to work correctly so i said fuck it lol.

Re: my intake manifold project
those flexshafts snap. i went through 7 of the damn things before i just bought a good heavy duty grinder. Harbor frieght has one ive been using for 8 months, the thing feels bullet proof to me.

Re: my intake manifold project
ill either put it on FRI before the meet or at the meet. All it needs is another coat of metal polish becuz i had to clean for paint and wash it off... thats why the polish looks so so

Re: my intake manifold project
Clear coat the manifold if you can, aluminum oxidizes and will lose the polish and look a bit hazy after some time. Otherwise that thing looks sick.
