fabrication of the 3 into 1 header begins left tube is cut and rolled. the center tube templates are laid out ready for tracing of course i had to built a new bench to work on and while i was at it i put in a new insulated garage door so i wouldn't freeze my but off.

took the guys at the print shop 2 weeks to make the templates and then i had to cut them out. a 4x8 sheet of mild steel is 56 bucks when my dad worked at algoma steel he was aloted 10 sheets a year and reduced price on everything else damn i miss that deal.

i wonder if this is the first ever 3 into 1 header that uses tapered header pipes instead if straight pipe? i have a pipe tweaked that peaks at 9000 rpm. starts making power at 3000rpm and just climbs to 9000rpm.

layout worked perfect just tightning up the pipes at the collecter to get as small as possible.
