So who's bringing the beers to Midgets place tomorrow?? https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png



I am excited like a little school girl to see this car. Mark you are a lucky man and I am SUPER JEALOUS.

What happened? I was expecting to see some of you this weekend?

Oh well, the drivers side headers is all pieced together and passenger side is started. I'll post a pic tommorow. I'm wiped out and ready to pass out... https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/wacko.png



BTW - Drew, that stuff happens to me all the time. Just when you think you have the weekend planned, BAM, the women changes the plans on ya. I think it is their way of keep us confused https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683664.gif

Yeah I was busy. I'l stop by this week sometime. Probably Wednesday. I'll call you.

Justin: Wed should be OK after 5:30.



Here are some pics of the header. The one tube on the top looks like it is just angled and butted up to the other pipe, but it isn't. It has a small pie piece of curved section to angle it about 4 degrees. Every tube connection is cut square to the radius of the curve and every tube is +/- 0.5" in length of the target length.

Looks damn good. I went to 75-80 friday night then spent saturday mowing grass and putting the tranny, converter etc in the car. Not real easy by yourself with no trans jack or lift. Did it with 2 floor jacks and a lot of arm holding and shimming.

RX-Midget 04-21-2004 09:00 PM

Well I finished up the passenger side header. Pics will be posted tomorrow. You guys in Westminster better hurry up if you want to see this while it is close by. I'm planning to send it home on Sunday with the exhaust all done. Just in time to get the RX-Midget back Sunday night or Monday https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

Damnit I forgot all about this.



I'll try friday or saturday. I'll call you.

so Brian... when I get around to getting my early 70's Pantera are you going to help me fab up my exhaust when I go turbo (hopefully twin) with the 351C??? https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png



damn that stuff is looking good... makes me miss having a place to weld... https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...O_DIR#>/11.gif time to get a damn house!
