Shit, that's hurting my eyes!! Very fricken nice indeed! :)
Who did your manifolds for you, your inlet particularly is a work of art.
Much like the rest of the car...Hey what's the label on the pass side inner guard?
JAS, have you put specs up of what you've put in your finished product? Or is it still not finished...? :o

Thanks man.
Heres the thread with most of the info.
http://forums.austarion.com/viewtopic.p ... 67&start=0

I did most of the Manifolds myself. The inlet is a N/A twin cam Galant item that I cut down and built new plenum for. I was made from 4mm alloy off cuts that I got from a mate who was building a boat at the time.
The Exhaust mani was one I bought off Trade Me and moded to suit. Its steam pipe.

The label on the pass side inner guard is the Cert plate. In NZ when you Mod a car like this you need to have it certified by an automotive certifier. Only then can you get a Warrent Of Fitness (WOF) and put rego on the car.
Its a straight forward process though.

Its not finished yet by a long shot. But as Ive bought a house, the other stuff I want to do to it will be done over a longer time. Just things like the interior and stereo set up.

Sorry didnt want to hijack this thread.... Back to thermostat housing's :wtf:

Heres a pic of the pipe going to the thermostat housing

Show Image: Image

The pipes got a flange on the end where the housing mounts to. Although the flange is thincker than the one in this pic.
