I'm selling my t3 top mount manifold. This particular manifold is 304 low carbon stainless steel, 1.5" diameter piping. All flanges are mild steel. The manifold was tig welded by my cousin, who is a general manager of a large welding shop in Illinois. The welds are extremely nice and clean, and this manifold is sturdy. Turbo flange is a t3. I was running a garrett t3/t04e with no clearance problems. I can't guarantee what other t3's will fit. 38mm wastegate flange on the bottom. I was using a Tial. Fit fine. I also coated the manifold with some VHT Flameproof and sent it through some heat cycles and it seems to hold up. Manifold has literally 3 miles on it. The inside has a little bit of splatter from where I plasma cut it, but it's nothing to worry about. Asking around $200. Hardware you see pictured is included. [IMG]

manifold looks good! ive been wondering how that VHT flame proof paint would hold up, most high temp paints burn off at startup.

did you buy a tapped t3 flange? i almost like that mounting of the flange better then using the radius plate like we normally do.

Thanks. The flameproof actually works quite well. I didn't want to spend money to get it jet hot coated, so I tried this stuff out. It was worth 7 bucks. Needless to say, VHT seems to be much better than other sprays I've used.

I did use a tapped flange that was already rounded out on the bottom to fit the 1.5" piping. I bought it from BMC Race.

Sent you an email earlier. Unless my email is acting up again, this one should have gone through.
