What kind of pipe did you use? Did you got it from auto parts or muffler shop? Also what kind of angle do I need to do this mod? Thanks.

heres my twin termin,badass gear right there. i know its ironic ,but thats not the cheapest way to end your exaust line,since i did not buy headers,and i dont have to buy any cat i putted extra doe on something else.anyway i only paid 115 bux for the 2 of hem. long story..(and i still dont know if im putting the two of hem on, maybe its just useless..)

this is the original setup with the closed ending using the manifold end .for that i just used some peices of metal ,2 actualy ,one over the other ,and i cutted them in a circle patern,so it could fit in there ,than i placed the manifold seal on it and to finish i bolted the crossover pipe end on top of that and i sealed it with some muffler compound ,but the compound is really not doing anything i just putted some cause i had it close to me.

Chief_Yota

this is the new pipe ,its not yet finished ,so ill be comming up with mesurments next time. but for now its fits perfectly .and it does not come close to any wires ,or the releasse cylinder,but i wont take any chances ,im gonna use some heat proof tape on thoses. as for the pipe its gonna be all welded (dont worry)

Chief_Yota

and it fits right in there



as for the images sorry for the size ,ill be updating them soon.

im making a list of all the stuff i had to buy to get this done.

Guardian_Saint

Thanks man, I'm looking into this mod myself, I am in the process of diong the HG and transmission swap and will do this mod, but have to wait until you are done. I would like if you list what angle did you use on those pipe so it'll be easy way to go and purchase them easier. Why two muffler? It doesn't seem like you are following as the picture you post, will this mod mate before the O? Sensor be located? Thanks a lot. GL man.

If you are going to weld it, you should have bought mandrel bends instead of pressure bends for your exhaust pipes. That will reduce heat and help flow & performance.

Chief_Yota

thats a good fact right there,but i guess the awser to that is im kinda out of time so im doing with wut i got here,my girlfriend is gonna kill me if i take one more weekend on my damn truck.this weekend is the last,well for this mod

Chief_Yota

alright ,so i had a major problem with my injectors,numb 1 was blocked numb 6 was blocked ,so i decided to clean them myself,so i took off the screens and soak them with injector cleaner ,i connected them to a 12v output and sprayed air by the tip.

Chief_Yota

i had to change one cause it had major leakdown,now i understand why i had so bad MPG anyway thats my setup to clean them,be really carefull not to set fire to your garage thoe.!!

good call. looks great. cheif pipe mod. i like it. im gonna have to come up with something random to do to my 22re that i can name. yep. real quick, what type of paint did u use? and what type of prep did u use b4 painting it?

Chief_Yota

as for the problem with the distributor not getting to sit in position ,i found the problem. plz no comments: i putted my heads THE WRONG SIDE. ahhh
,when i first see that,i was really pissed then i just figured out,its all good , there exacly the same ,exept the mount for the power stering and the distributor hole,so i putted shims behind the P-ST bracket and retaped the dist hole and voila.! anyway ,for the cheif mod heres the update: i got the pipe welded and im cutting the last peice that conect everything up.

Chief_Yota

ok i know the welds look like ☺☺☺☺ but im not a big fanatic of welding.

Just so you know your cam caps will not line up correctly on the heads, they are/need to be line bored. If you want your engine(topend) to last you better remove the heads and switch them to the correct side. You now have mismatched caps right to left.

Chief_Yota

i know it sounds crazy but the cam caps fits perfecly,no mismatch watsever,and i sealed them anyway with some high heat and oil ressitant packing. and i cant afford to switch the heads ,its gonna cost me another set of head gasket and alot of pain in the butt. so there is no turning back now.
