Good deal, I'm sure that will turn out really nice having access to equipment and folks that do that for a living.


I finished up the exhaust tubing welding. I found a nice purge box online called the "Crummy DIY Purge Box". Crummy is the company's name and not an indication of the quality of the product. It was a fun little welding project and worked out really nice to back purge the internal flange welds that are on the turbo outlets.

I also made a few small heat shields to protect the exposed valve cover rubber gasket from the upturned exhaust manifolds.
