Exhaust manifold - at last

Finished the exhaust manifold tonight - I bought a T04 manifold with a big ass wastegate adapter (Going to weld a 60mm vband on to it) so I had to cut a T3 flange, and weld it to the manifold, and tap it for studs.
You can see here where I had to match the T3 flange up to the existing T03 flange - came out just perfect! No gaps or restrictions anywhere so should flow quite well. Nothing in this bloody escapade has been easy!!
Close up of the welding, not a bad job if I do say so myself

I do like a nice bit of flange!
That looks heavy duty Mark, Im eagerly awaiting seeing the end result of your mechanical jigsaw puzzle come to life.
