    Hey Slammed

    That is correct for the crossover, but the headers themselves were final welded from a cylinder head only.

    My whole crossover is only tac welded, I am borrowing a welded so that the FINAL fit up is performed on my actual car. I did quite a lot with the HeadsLim jig but as you know you can only do so much without cracking a few nuts loose and bolting parts up for real.

    Had a bit of a day messing around with some plumbing and pipework

    made up the 3/4 lines to the Valve Cover / Catch tanks, chopped up the coil bracket to relocate it to the crossbar by the hood latch,

    Also did some mock up pipework so i can work backwards for a final turbo position.

    Starting to look like a real engine bay now, its screaming out for a gutted plenum but oh well.
