flamers come in!!! Fello made a top mount!hahaha

[The Fello]

ok so i made a top mount.
it started by me making a jig out of a 666 top mount so i know were the flanges will sit. the manifold i made is by no means a good flowing manifold. i will be just using it wile i collect all the right parts to make a nice one up also wen i do make a good one i will allredy have a DP and oil lines ect... everything will match up.
remember i will not be using this manny for a long time !!!its 4 mok up
so here it is! FLAME AWAY!!!!!!!


so 2day i installed the turbo witch is my good ol 50 trim.
i then made a 2.25 mandrel bent hot side ic pipe.& a 3" mandrel bent down pipe.
and here that is




so thats it for now. ill post some more once i put the new motor in the drift car this week.

feel free to flame & do what ever you want. i d say i did ok with on scrap peaces. i sent $0 on this hole new set up

Could you post pictures of the manifold? Placement seems pretty decent.

One thing of concern, I'm pretty sure you installed your camber plates wrong... I could be wrong, but that's not the angle of any that I have seen installed or installed as per instructions myself. You need to rotate, at least the passenger one, one hole counter clockwise.

Is that really copper pipe for your intercooler piping?????

i dont have any more pics oif the manni . its on the car ill pull it out this week. the placement is the same as a 666 top mount. i will run into a problem runing a MAF. i might just have to stuff it in the headlight with pannyhose filter.

as far as the camber plate . this car has a Tweaked strut tower from a incident & that was the only way we could get the camber & caster to match up. also redrilling the tower & adding shims down at the strut

Try running the MAF as blow through maybe?

[turbo325ii]

e36 top mounts are difficult... Im glad I will be doing this in an e30 with more room.

Good job, lets see the mani naked! Take the wrap off and show us your bird turd welds!

[bluejeansonfire]

looks sweet, wish i could have seen it before it was wrapped.

[blackbmr325]

haha thers no AC in my DD i placed the WG were the compresor should go.
on the real manni im gonna build im going to make it AC friendly.

as far as the naked manni. it doesnt look THAT bad. yea its bad but it will work for a month or so.
my welds have gone a long way, since i worked at a fabrication shop & learnd how to weld properly

[nitrosobmw]

nice work fello, Im glad it worked man, we are always moving forward
