MONZTER

Hi LLave, I tried to send you an e-mail with the STEP file but it will not accept my user name or password. Can someone explain to me the proper way to send a file to someone. Thanks

Hi The merge collecter assembly, T-3 Flage, header flange, as well as one of the primaries were done in Pro-E. Are you looking for native files? if so do you have wildfire 3.0 as Pro files are not backwards compatable. Can you use a STEP file? Let me know and I can e-mail them directly to you. I can only ask that you use them for learning and not selling. All my parts I design are for my personal enjoyment and 1 offs. All my parts I do are done in 3-D on the computer first. Here is a rear strut with a disk conversion for an AP 2 piston caliper (same as a Lotus Esprit Front) using 300zx turbo axle shaft, bearings, parking brake and rotor. I guess thats a different page topic, sorry

The primaries are 26" long from port exit to merge collector. This length and the diameter as well as the volume of the merge collectors was determined by Burns Stainless, and their software called X-Design http://www.burnsstainless.com/Xdesign/xdesign.html All of the stainless was purchased there, a bunch of good guys

A couple more pics

Hi, I never have posted before on a forum, but I had some pics of my turbo headers I just finished tacking up, so I figured I would show it. It is made of 321 16g stainless u-bends that were cut in segments. A total of 3 different radii were used to get the smooth flow and equal length. The picture of the merge collector on the previous link reminded me of what I built so I thought I would share some pics for once. Check out the mock-up tubes, They are corigated cardboard 1-5/8 and hold there shape when bent. Simply cut all 6 to the same length and plan out your routing. Build each tube in segments replacing the mock up tubes as you go. It actually took many hours to get the flow of the tubes to be what I wanted, but was fun and challenging. The merge collector was formed from 15 degree tubes and spliced together, the second half was hand formed over a steel form CNC machined from a solid model I created in Pro-e. I will polish all the tacked tubes, break it apart and finish welding it together leaving the heat zones like on the finished merge collector. I hope you enjoy the pictures, maybe I will get around to posting other parts for my car that I have fabricated.
