(IMG:style_emoticons/default/popcorn[1].gif) It,s a BASE for an internally wired (3) three head ,flexable, halogen, floor mounted SHOP LIGHT!!!!! or a (3) way slop sink drain line connector,....or a special fitting for your moonshine still.....or a fitting for brake calaper ducting,in which the third fitting is for nitrogen to cool the rotor....or its a new component for the christmas special Ronco "slicer dicer" which we can not live without again this year...or it,s a collector for one bank of a "six" racing exhaust....or a not gonna be very successful intake manafold for a four banger with a big inspection hole. or a (overly optismitic )carb jet holder for your newest race engine...or a much needed heater system connector so both H/Es will work...or a top for the inevatable "chia pet" another plant my home cannot be without.....

Ch.. ch.. ch.. Chia. Aren't those made of clay?
QUOTE('kg6dxn') I've got 4 of those holding my awning together at the corners. Wrong angles... QUOTE('jd74914') Boxster? The topic is guess this part, not guess what it is part of. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/popcorn[1].gif) ....or it,s a collector for one bank of a "six" racing exhaust.... Thats the best answer, but it isn't for a race header - at least not for now. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) QUOTE('swood') shotgun shot glass? Every year one of my vendors has a christmas party and they have a ski with 4 shot glasses glued onto it. It would be a bit tough for 3 people to drink at once from a design like mine, unless they used straws. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) QUOTE('Travis Neff') angles look very broad for a 3-1 My approach is different from what everyone else has already done - thinking outside the box here. I don't want to make a near copy of what already exists. Looking at all the available products I see only these approaches: 1) Keep the price down by using a simple pipe arrangement and get the exhaust to the (stock type) muffler as quickly as possible, while still being able to say the primaries are equal length. 2) Add a crappy ss heat exchanger box to a crappy ss header and charge a sh..load of money for it. 3) Meticulously fabricate a very expensive full on stainless race header for a high rpm engine. No one seems to have fully applied exhaust tuning principles to a street header. I'm designing a mid priced, H/T coated mild steel, high performance street header for engines that have a red line between 6500 & 7000 rpm. Both the primaries and secondaries are going to be tuned length, made for peak power near 6000 rpm. 1 1/2" and 1 5/8" sizes will be available. This collector is a key ingredient. It is the shortest, easiest to fabricate and install, highest quality, smoothest flowing welded merge 3 into 1 collector available. Not only that, I expect my stainless steel (dual outlet) muffler to be more free flowing, yet quieter, than anything else I've seen on the market. I also expect it to work with a WEVO 915 tranny, and it will be adaptable to the other popular headers. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) One more thing, If you NEED to have a banana muffler but want the benefits of a higher quality tuned length header, it will be easy to adapt my header to the stock design muffler. My muffler will be lighter though. It will have better ground clearance by 2", and be made in (IMG:style_emoticons/default/flag.gif) . |
