    Good stuff, any tips for welding the v band flanges. Mine leaks a bit on the civic I think I must have warped it slightly. Did you weld it on the inside too and leave it all assembled while welding it?

    Proper job! I got one off ebay and got a local guy to weld it on and it was a shit job tbh. I dont know if It was due to crappy alloy or him not having the tig set right. I had the dremmel the fitting to get the bov to sit flush in it. Im thinking of cutting it out and re doing it some time.

    if you were just running it rwd it wouldnt be as bad if you got a solid shaft made up to do away with the viscous coupling would it?

    yeah i will get a foot pedal for mine eventually if i do some aluminium work. from what ive read its a good thing to have with the aluminium taking up so much of the heat. what rods are you using 5556? where do you get your bits of sheet and pipes from? The cars really coming on now!

    when i first put my 5e engine in, the car had no mot so pretty much one of its first journeys was to the garage for its mot. he wasnt bothered about the emissions but when tested the cars emissions were as clean as cars that have a cat in.

    ive had a couple of zisco kits and a couple of wepr kits and i think the wepr stuff that ive had atleast, is alot better than the zisco ones. the welds are ALOT neater on the wepr ones. im not saying im an expert on welding but just from looking inside the manifold i had a zisco one with a fair lump of weld very near to the flange which really didnt look good, also the welds on the runners looks alot better on my wepr kit. also the collector looks excellent on my current wepr manifold. a big thing with the manifolds is also the price. you could make the best manifolds in the world for a st

    its uv light that can be used to erase reprogrammable eproms which have a little window on them. which is why after you burn them they need a sticker put over the window. ive done a few for my arcade machine pcb's.
