Hey charlie, I am new to the forum. I was wondering does anyone build good turbo headers, or do I have to make my own? I am a fabricator and have all of the equipment but have no time right now. I would love to have it together by april so I can tune on it.

I moved this from "guest posting" thread.

James, welcome to the site, but please try to post in the proper area, and in the correct/or new thread.
Your question could be easily missed, in the thread, where you had posted.

Is there people out there that need custom headers and innercoolers? If there is, I would love to help some of these guys out. I am building a 1973 duster slant six car right now that it has a 70mm turbo and a huge inner cooler. I might even make my own intake. Should I send some pics? :D

I will send some pics of the hand built headers and the turbonetics wastegate flanges. The headers I am building are for a t-4 type exducer. I will also have some airflow figures off of our superflow 600. We are trying different size valves and lifts to accomadate the turbo.

James as a Slant Six Racer that goes to at least 6 events a year in our Championship series races I hear a lot about turbo headers and regular Slant headers. Not many people doing them for the Slant. I would be interested in a total turbo setup . I would build the engine for this. Thanks Ron Parker :D

Hey Ron, I am going to talk to a guy monday about cutting some flanges to my demensions. I will have some exhaust flanges and some t-4 turbo flanges made up. I am going to have enough made up to make four or five turbo headers. If you are interested in having some made for you e-mail me, oh by the way, my dad always said you could make a slant six "get it".

James,

Welcome to the site.

I am interested in a Slant-t4 header in either stainless or heavy wall steel. Keep us updated on your progress there and let us know your plans.

Best,

Lou

I am having exhaust flanges made right now. I am hoping that they are done tommorow. They are one half inch thick. The t4 flanges and the wastegate flanges are the same thickness.
