How much would y'all pay for these badboys in mild steel? in stainless?



606 exhaust oval -> 2" ID pipe.

Trying to judge if it's worth the time to makeup a die set.

larsalan I guess I need to look at this stupid ass drip shit. What you have to like mess with those elements on the pump? What a fucking hassle. then use some wire to hold the throttle open or some shit?

From experience I would say 1.5" outlet would be easier to fabricate a manifold from with the space available, but to answer your question I would have bought a set off you if these were available 6 months ago!

2" is on the big side. Unnecessary internal volume isn't good on a turbo manifold. Also transitioning to a divided T3 would be murder.

The circumference of the 606 outlets is the same as a 2.25" pipe, It would be interesting to stretch out a 1.5" pipe to 2.25"....

First test with the prototype die, using 2.25" exhaust pipe (1/16" wall, has a 2.125" ID)

I didn't center it properly and mangled the round end, but the oval came out pretty nice.  It was a TIGHT fit with the 2.125" pipe, 2" thick wall is going to be a bear!

Why not just make it from 1.5" to 2.25" concentric reducers like everyone else?

Looks good! I'd definitely be up for buying a set.
1/16" wall sounds a bit thin, no? Probably better off with 1/8".
My only issue with those concentric reducers as Harry mentioned is that they appear quite long, which could be a negative for those with space constraints. If they were shorter I'd go for them.

Lol they are 'weld-els', more formally weld elbows, very easy to find in USA very hard to find in UK...

They are cast steel so they bent well.

I used 2.25" x 1.5" concentric reducers and they are perfect, just trimmed them down a bit because full size they stick out from the manifold flange about 4" and we have steering box on RHD. I would suggest you try the same,

Nope, 2.0" x 1.5" aka 51mm x 38mm.  The die stretches them out all right, I want to say somewhere around 1/5 to 1/4 load on the gauge (It's marked as a 50 ton press, so I assume around 10tons of pressure?

That set's headed to a customer in FL, once I get some free time (haha) I'll be making another two sets.

I'm thinking that $30/pop ($180/set) for fully machined ready-to-weld covers my time.

When you guys are using 1.5" pipe for you manifold tubes do you mean 1.5" ID or OD??
The 1.5" ID pipe that I have looks massive and wondered if it would affect the pressure. I know it would help top end flow but it would bugger the low rev spool up.

He likely means 1.5" schedule 10 or 40, which is much bigger than 1.5" in inside diameter because it's a 200 year old standard Smile

Right I see what you mean thank you. I’ve gone for 36mm ID pipe. I think it will be best suited and the other 42mm ID pipe I have is goanna be too big. The collecter would be a nightmare getting it to fit on the T3
