563" P(DD)51 build underway **GOT SOME NUMBERS**

header is looking good Jon!...I like them front wheels!....man I wish I still had my 2.0's

Headers look good Jon. Better keep the wheelie bars set low, you may have a rocket / thrust issue with those headers aimed at the ground.......thrust hydraulics ........ The Mexicans will idolize you if they don't already .....

Travis

That's some sweeeet lookin headers right there. Nice job!

Bill

They pointing the wrong way. Uprights would have been much easier.

That dagum Fabio has went and got wheels like mine too. I guess I am gonna have to get a p-51 logo tattooed on my tongue just so I can be different.

DAM! i found this down at the bottom of the page! fixed it. happy b-day

I think I am gonna file the domes off my pistons , stick about 10 pieces of 1 1/2 pvc in my enderle injector for venturi 's , lubricate Travis' s-10 vac pump with graphite greese and go see if I can break Mike Phillip's dyno

That's nice but the nitrous bungs are supposed to be on the INTAKE They look cool, are you coating them, painting them, or leaving them bare metal?

those look nice...

looks good Jon! who welded them? are they equal length?

The bungs are for egt's.............Need to weld the collector tabs on, plus a little cleanup on the inside of the flange area. I'll get the driver's side done up this weekend, they will get HPC coated.


I have a friend who is a welder at the local industrial supply company, 10 bucks a tube aint worth messin' with lol.


The front and rear tubes are a bit longer than I wanted, but I'd rather the tube be longer than put a severe bend in it to keep them equal. You also have to allow for the front suspension travel, tire clearance etc.

I know, I was just messing with you. I would ask you how easy it was but I know it will be much harder to do on my truck anyway.

The last 2 tubes took some doing trying to keep all the joints tight for the tig. I should just squeak by with enough tubing for the other side, if I need another J bend I can have it here in 2 days lol, so it wont be any trouble.

I'll have about 20 hours in the whole project, as said the final welding he is doing is saving me some time. The collectors are HPC coated from the last set, but will get redone as well.

Get the tubes done and on, put the ign box and stuff back in the car, change the front hub seal on the tranny and put it back in, recert the belts......then just wait for the track to get to an acceptable state of prep after the winter months and we'll go see how she run...................

Pretty dam impressive, Jon, very nice work on them pipes.....

Is the big bend on #4 for tire clearance ? i cant see from the pic if its from something else in the way? anyway nice job what size are they ?

Looks like some good work. I like the new wheels up front too.

Nice extractors there Fabio................... Hero skills x2
