How does the Hot side piping react when it get's really hot. I would imagine with the different metals and their expansion and contraction properties that they might put some stress on the welds no? Nice work!

Well as of right now i havent had a problem with the manifold welded to steel pipe. The pipe welded to the manifold is 1/8th thick. And the pipe welded to the T4 turbo flange is almost less than 1/4 thick. I think i shouldnt have any problem with this in the future it seems to hold on pretty good together, here is closer pic of my manifold welded together.

stock48, you think this cams are to big for my 370ci. forged motor. I was thinking they were about the pretty good size for this engine, i dont know but i always liked cams with high lifts on them. But thats just me. well its hard to deside on wich cam i should go with, between this two cams.
