My wife came into the room and asked me why I am always watching Canadians working on cars. I didnt even realize it until she asked. I guess I Iike Canadians- maybe its because my dad listened to Gordon Lightfoot all the time, and I listened to Rush all the time. Anyway, I am enjoying every minute of your build and I can wait to see it finished. Plus I think you said the car is called a Canadian so that a bonus.

Thanks, much appreciated. Rush I can get behind big time. In Canada the Amazon was called a Canadian and I'm not sure why or what the story was for this market.
As a former sheet metal worker.....you are working to a higher standard than I ever achieved...and I was working to a higher standard than pretty much everyone else in the union!
Super nice ……. What a pleasure to invite us in so we can distract you. Better chance the manifold will stay on the bench that way. And I didn’t hear one single curse along the way 👍👍😎👍👍
LOL - thought you'd like that Alan. It did make a difference. I think in the end I should be able to get the dogbone out and it's got lot so of clearance now for adjustment.
Thanks for making the tube models available. I'll definitely printing a set when I make headers for my turboed 47 Dodge truck project. Putting masking tape on the joints you're not welding helps conserve expensive argon. Surprisingly the heat does not affect as badly as one would think. I just peel back about an inch where I'm welding.
Subscribed. Your videos are so incredibly interesting and enlightening. Love to see your mistakes and listen to your very honest and real dialog. We are both engineers and enjoy listening to your approaches and solutions to problems! Great work.
I've been building my own tubular manifold today and it's been so frustrating trying to hold it all together while I tack it up to the point I've had to walk away, I need some of those 3d printed inserts you made, nice solution to a problem there.
Awesome work this reminds me of the Falcon 9 SpaceX launch pad it had three pivot points using three knuckles where when the rocket sits horizontal and starts raising up vertical had figure out all the angles. Awesome work i love it when theres staggered offsets and still making sure everything is perfect. And on the landing ive always knife edge mine even when you butt them up no gap you still get a good fusion even without adding wire or no gap.
You should invest in some TPU material for your 3D printed tube rings. It’s stiff but pliable so you won’t have to constantly trim to size for every pipe, you can just squeeze them into place! Awesome build man!😁👍🏾
really enjoyed your comments on stainless and it's welding properties. I blew a hole though some Chinese stainless recently. I had to tack it up.. one every 10 minutes :) got it closed eventually.. that was with a MIG :)
Yup - tune in to the next episode to watch me screw up (so far) one runner by being a little impatient. I'll fix it - but it doesn't feel good to fail.
I've built several tubular turbo manifolds over the years out of stainless and the first thing I look for is if they're back purging (it's mindblowing how many people don't do this), so it was a welcome sight to see it done correctly. My next thought was bracing for the turbo, I try not to allow the turbo to rest solely on the tubing because it nearly always results in cracks along the welds months or years later, especially if it's a race car. But, I was surprised at how thick the tubing (pipe?) you used was. Honestly, that's probably a better solution than using a flange-to-flange brace, especially since I'm assuming you're going to be using something along the lines of a T3/T4. With the larger turbos (80mm+) I try to do a flange-to-flange support because frequent wastegate activity and throttle changes stresses the manifold over time, especially when it gets heat soaked.
I'm still working on that decision...to brace or not to brace. It's pipe - it should be able to handle both the weight, the vibration and the heat. My current thought is to leave it as I don't want the various forces fighting and resulting in cracks. Back-purge - all the way.
Something I don't see in USA how to videos dealing with exhaust tubing is the use of spun metal donuts (Mild steel or Stainless) available in a large variety of sizes, they do reduce the number of pie cuts and elbows required.
@@ThrottleStopGarage Wife: you like working on stuff Me: I don't. Wife: then why do you do it? Me: I like what all that work creates. I don't always enjoy the process but I enjoy the results.
Wow, that was a very nice comprehensive video, not easy making an exhaust runner for a 5 cylinder, i'd like to see how much would it flex after the whole thing get welded, Do you relly need to pruge it when u tact?
I'm pretty sure it's not going anywhere! Yes, I think you do need to purge when you tack. If you don't - you'll get the carbide precipitation on the backside of the weld. Many will say that it doesn't matter and if I was trying to make money building these things, there are cheaper options that work...but none of those conditions apply for me.
Not that I've made my own manifold myself (yet) but from what I've seen the runners will shrink when fully welded. To combat this each runner is normally made slightly longer than required to compensate and then trimmed down (if required) to fit in the final construction.
Sort of depends on how it's been fitted up to be honest. If it's tight gapped and everything is done properly - the shrink per joint would be very minimal. I've already done the root pass and the only one that moved was runner 3 (I had a small gap - shown in this video) - it pulled up about 1.5 mm. I can fill that no problem when I weld it to the flange.
@@ThrottleStopGarage fingers crossed! Like I say, I've not made one myself yet but thought I'd share what I'd seen, after all your hard work and effort I didn't want you to weld it all up and find they're all a couple of mm too short!! I have to admit, yours does have the best fit up of all I've seen! Great job 👍🏻
@@AndyPonting I think you've earned it...I was up most of last night working out how to prevent it. It took me one hour to fix the runner - so no big deal.
I know - but I don't have any in the show right now. Only making one - but if you're making lots the argon costs will get you every time. $140 for 22 cu ft in Canada.
Just a thought, but if the spacers had a weak-spot 3d printed into them - you could maybe tack them in place then just punch them out. It would make them more single-use though.
If I was changing the design, I'd print a few variants - one with tapers going both ways for the weld els. Then one with a taper and a straight for an el into a straight and the original (little smaller) for straight into collector/flange.
Now I understand how those clamps are supposed to work :-) I wonder how you are going to weld all those pipes together. It seems to me that at some point you will not have enough space. But something tells me that you have a cunning plan for that so I am looking forward to watch the next video :-)
i know its years ago and you likely forget but what issue did you find was taking the most time when trying to mock up the plastic jig? i thinking to make my own for welding, thanks in advance
The plastic jig was the best part of building that manifold. Easy to work with, and if I had to guess, I'd say that getting the lengths dialed in took the longest. It really didn't take that long - it's just playing with shapes.
@@ThrottleStopGarage oh I see it now thank you! Where do you order your pipes from? Your channel has been a goldmine for me. I have been trying to find some but amazon is around $20+ an elbow which is a bit crazy price wise.
is there any way to clean welding seams by sanding and polishing? it looks amazing and if you manage to delete all welding seams it is gonna look more amazing congrats on your achievement

Sorry if this has been asked before ( there ae a lot of comments to sift through) Where do you source your bends in Canada? I have been looking with little success. Thank you and I love the work.
In my experience - welders and fabricators are not well compensated for their skills. Last time I did this for a living, I was billed at $100/hr and made $10/hr.

@@stevencatillon2553 Ah, I see. They were made by Ice Engine Works and are still listed by Trick Tools in the USA. They do not work very well with the short radius tubes. They may work better with the radii that are used in tube versus pipe.
Hey, any chance you can reupload your Long Radius 1.5" weld el marking jig to thingyverse, seems during the upload it shrunk down to 4mmx4mmx1.5mm :) much appreciated been hanging out to use this jig :)
A few reasons. The pipe helped with tight radii that were needed for packaging and the wall thickness should mean that this thing will have a reasonable lifetime. I'm not going to tell you that 1.6 mm won't work - it will. I've done it. This just buys the extra insurance.
I'm conflicted... the fabricating talent to design and build tuned length turbo manifolds I find impressive. They're nothing but a show piece, overall the time spent designing and building a first place, best fabrication award isn't worth the time spent. Never mind that these manifolds ignore good turbocharger system design principles.
I'm not sure how an equal length manifold ignores turbocharger system design principles. The tuning isn't necessarily any different from a normally aspirated engine. The problem is that you've stuck a restriction in the system - the turbine. You'd still like the pulse timing to be even. Nobody is arguing that you can't just build a log manifold and make power. I am building this because I enjoy the challenge not because I'm trying to make a dollar. Build the best that you care to build.
I get the point - most of this doesn't matter that much but in reference to your "work" comment. There are things that work (and we've all been there) and then there are things that work for a long time. I'd like this to last a long time.
Was thinking the same thing as in over thinking the job at hand, but everyone has their own way. It's a wonder how I made headers and exhaust 40 years ago without a 3D printer, but then again I'm just a boomer.
Well I'm an union pipefitter and I'm telling you, you'd probably struggle alot less with some foil tape holding it together. All those clamps and 3d printed inserts to get your hi-low out are unnecessary. Also there's a way easier way of marking and cutting down 90's to make custom fittings. You're handicapping yourself.
@@ascholtka420 That would be fantastic information to share. I'm a guy building a car in my garage and I clearly state that I've never fitted a pipe manifold before in my life. It's a struggle if you can't find the information.
Hope this makes sense. You measure the inside radius and outside radius of your 90's ÷ both by 2. And mark on the inside and outside radius. To get a 45. ÷4 for 22.5. ÷8 for 11.25 fittings. Etc... for any bastard angle. Your angle finding block is cool and all but what if people don't have access to a printer. (Which I do)

Hello, I would like the same file1.5D Cutting Jig (3D print FILES) in 2.1/2 inch, 3 inch is it possible?
All models are on the thigiverse page linked in the description. You can scale them to suite your needs. Good luck.
now i know why tehy cost like this
Yes - a lot of work.
Where U buy the plastc models pipes?
I designed and 3D printed them. The link is in the description.
Y thanks but i don't see the model of plastic pipes. Third link in the description not working😔help pls

I'm conflicted... the fabricating talent to design and build tuned length turbo manifolds I find impressive. They're nothing but a show piece, overall the time spent designing and building a first place, best fabrication award isn't worth the time spent. Never mind that these manifolds ignore good turbocharger system design principles.
I'm not sure how an equal length manifold ignores turbocharger system design principles. The tuning isn't necessarily any different from a normally aspirated engine. The problem is that you've stuck a restriction in the system - the turbine. You'd still like the pulse timing to be even. Nobody is arguing that you can't just build a log manifold and make power. I am building this because I enjoy the challenge not because I'm trying to make a dollar. Build the best that you care to build.
@@ThrottleStopGarage Thus I appreciate the workmanship. Been a long time since I've fabricated a turbo exhaust manifold.
Link thinguiverse non work.....
www.thingiverse.com/thing:4884410 thingiverse works fine.
Does throttle stop garage have any other social accounts? Instagram or anything? Thanks.
I update the Instagram and Facebook accounts regularly.
How
That material is armed robbery in my country so is Asian 304.
321 isn't cheap in Canada either!
+!
most expensive lol i wanted to throw them across the room for you
Probably work great for tube...weld els - not so much.
Your back purging to make tack welds? Really
Yes
"I like doing things the right way." There is no wrong way if it works.
I get the point - most of this doesn't matter that much but in reference to your "work" comment. There are things that work (and we've all been there) and then there are things that work for a long time. I'd like this to last a long time.
if you love to waist time thins for you,,,,,if Time was money this shop will be closed fast
It is my time to waste. I've fabricated a few headers and I can say that the techniques I showed in this video reduced the time significantly.
You rely on way to many aides. In my opinion you're making your job harder. It's not that complicated to fit up pipe/fittings.
Was thinking the same thing as in over thinking the job at hand, but everyone has their own way. It's a wonder how I made headers and exhaust 40 years ago without a 3D printer, but then again I'm just a boomer.
It is reasonably complicated for this manifold and I am sharing what I found works. With respect - this made it easier for me to fit the pipe.
Well I'm an union pipefitter and I'm telling you, you'd probably struggle alot less with some foil tape holding it together. All those clamps and 3d printed inserts to get your hi-low out are unnecessary. Also there's a way easier way of marking and cutting down 90's to make custom fittings. You're handicapping yourself.
@@ascholtka420 That would be fantastic information to share. I'm a guy building a car in my garage and I clearly state that I've never fitted a pipe manifold before in my life. It's a struggle if you can't find the information.
Hope this makes sense. You measure the inside radius and outside radius of your 90's ÷ both by 2. And mark on the inside and outside radius. To get a 45. ÷4 for 22.5. ÷8 for 11.25 fittings. Etc... for any bastard angle. Your angle finding block is cool and all but what if people don't have access to a printer. (Which I do)
boomer you use* cad for stuff like this
Not a boomer and I've got no idea what you're talking about.
@@ThrottleStopGarage I was just implying that one should use computer aided design for stuff like this instead of creating more plastic stuff
