Nice. Now you just need to order up a custom flange. If you can't order one than I'm sure a machine shop could cut one down. Might need to make some tappered washers also so the bolt sit flat on the flange.

 

Planning to just order a set of flanges from arh and have a local machine shop mill the flanges and countersink the headers at the right angle.

 

That's a good idea. Should make things simple and solve the problem.

 

I guess this is not as easy as I originally thought. Talked to 2 machine shops about angle decking the header flanges down and they aren't interested. ARH hasn't replied to my last e-mail in 3 days. finally called my local head porter and he is wanting to call me back later today. fingers crossed that I can make this happen without breaking the bank.

 

Got any buddy's with a Bridgeport mill? I would just tack weld it onto another block so it was flat, setup the block offset on the table and mill it down. Prob take 1/2 hour. Then I would weld the flanges together, clamp the header to the table, and use an end mill to recess the holes flat.

 

I'll send it all to you then LOL.

 

You could do it with a belt sander and a steady hand if you really had to

 

Ya you could use a belt sander, just build a jig on either side of the flange as a guid.

 

Wont that also lift the collector? I would be nervous about it sitting too high and hitting the body then.

 

He is moving it left to right not up and down
