Thank you sir. Hopefully this week I can spray the damn thing haha. Never thought it would take this long to sand...

[GunMetalGrey]

Take your time on the prep, that's the most important part of it all!

Oh of course. I didn't know I could use a power sander... The next time I go at it will probably take half the time lol.

Andy's auto? WTF. This isn't a honda forum in early 2000's son.

[GunMetalGrey]

That's where I first saw Sherman, and a lot of e30 guys say that their metal panels are decent.

Cheapest prices I've seen!

Chris (M20B27) And I found a site that sells non-oem fenders for a decent price. And aren't from Andy's. Andy's is so chincy. Idk man. I'm just not a fan of that site. And the fact they don't have pictures of the actual product makes it sketch to me.

Well post it up!! Also, my mother might be getting me some dyno time for my graduation present contacting some local places to try and get them to tune megasquirt.

Only place I'll recommend in Wisconsin is Late Model Throttle. TJ took me there, and they are legit as fuck. and the price is decent.

It's a $1.00 more for a fender, But their legit, and give you a picture, etc.

[Rowleym]

I've ordered a bunch of stuff from there. Thanks for the dyno tip! I'm trying to buy a tig welder real soon with my dad.. Should be fun. I can make my manifold

[Brian.]

Your dad doesn't have a welder?? Wtf. I don't have one either.. but that's cause we've never needed one yet

[GunMetalGrey]

Have fun with that...

Yea we have mig welders. We have always only used mig welders. At the machine shop there is a whole slew of miller welders that are beautiful, but I can only really go there after hours and on Sunday.

[Rowleym]

I love welding stainless I just need to learn how to do aluminum with tig! I can tig pretty well on everything but aluminum.

A Manifold is one hell of a piece of work! Lots of crazy bends and such.

Not saying you.can't do it, just saying they are art!

Yes they are.

Also, you know how to weld stuff to cast pieces right Rowley?

[Rowleym]

Yes I do to an extent. It doesn't turn out the best! Why exactly? Also, the manifold I would do would be pretty easy, and almost like a log manifold. kind of like the cast spa manifold?

Super rough sketch, but you knaw mean!

[Brian.]

That's for a 4 cylinder son. UEL (Unequal length headers) are so chincy man. Go for equal length (or close) which means you're gunna have to add bends and wrap pipes around others. But it'll be worth it in the end, if done properly.

Also, the key to welding onto anything cast, is to heat it up, heat it up really good with a torch, then weld to it.
