I spent the weekend cutting and welding heat exchangers for some headers I got from Bleyseng. I guess these are Eurorace that Zois had, then, Brad then, Geoff and now me. Anyway they are stainless and I used 304 stainless for the jackets.

Hope this works cause I barely left the garage and I used up the last few car tokens I had with the wife.

Way to go Dave. I hope that works for you.

That said, I share the concern that the ducting may be too tight and restrict airflow. You should get heat, but volume may be a problem. Using the booster fan in the engine compartment might help. Fans have a performance curve, pressure versus flow (cfm), and as pressure increases flow decreases. I am afraid that the booster fan will run out of flow as it tries to deliver the pressure needed. Let's see what happens.
