Hood Stack
#31
I heard that....
The plumbing would be up to you. I might be able to help out with a flange you would be able to use, and weld the flange to the pipes used in the plumbing.

Im interested for my 3RD Gen. But the whole pluming to the Stack with the twins might be tricky. Seeing as my twins are mounted up and down I would have to remove the battery and relocate the turbo if you had a single this would be perfect. I'll keep checking on this and take some measure ments see if I can plumb it without relocating everything.

7 inch for me and..... Would you include a couple 90 degree bends and short straight sections? Or would they be availible through you? Would it include a piece with a flange and flare for the turbo hook-up? Or do all I get is a 16" stack with a dressup ring to go around the hole?

PROTO TYPE Rev.1 IN HAND
Well I have the first revision of the mounting plates in hand. These are just proto types, and not the material we will be using for finished product. This will give you an idea of what it will look like. Please feel free to leave any comments at all.
Bottom Mount Plate...there are already a few changes we will be making to this, but you get the idea.
Top Mount Plate...this is what everyone will see. Naturally we will make this a very eye pleasing piece.
Here they are side by side.
Here we have a sample flare sitting in the bottom mount. It's a nice fit, but we are wanting more of a lip. So a few minor changes are to be made here.
As you can see in this picture, we need to machine a few more thousands off of the Top Plate, so it will slide all the way down. The process of flaring made a slight egg shape. We are also looking at resizing the stack after the flare has been made.
So that's where we are at now. The next step is getting the body shop down the road here to cut us out a 12 X 12 piece of hood so we can add that into the fabricating process.
I also found out that the LONGEST piece of steel we can flare is 14". So the hood stacks we offer will not be any longer than that. We will probably offer a 14", and a 12" length.
As always PLEASE keep your comments and suggestions coming. This product is for you, so we want your feedback!

Looking good. can't wait to see finished product, on my truck of course.
heck i am already figuring out the plumbing.
i geuss the easiest way is to turn the turbo around, exhaust to the front. i dont wanna lose my A/C but that may be the easiest way... i am no welder either so im prolly gonna have to get someone to make it for me
