Met with my welder and got my layout figured out. I'll be ordering the 4" aluminum tubing from racepartsolutions. He also needs some exhaust flanges and I'm having a hard time finding them. racepartsolutions has a turbo exhaust vband flange that goes to 4" (for my downpipe) which would be perfect, but it's aluminum. I'm pretty sure I want steel for this. Where can I find an exhaust flange for the turbo side that will weld up to 4" steel downpipe?

Secondly, he needs 2 exhaust flanges that mate to my Ford Racing Shorty headers. I can't seem to find a picture of these anywhere, let alone somewhere to order from. Anyone have a good source?

Thanks!

Bad as L

Are you talking about the header flange that bolts to the heads that the pipes weld too. If so I have both styles of 4V.

if you are talking about the collector flange, cut em off, and have him weld on some tubing to them, with a v-band flange

Yeah trying to find the right size collector is a PAIN IN THE ARSE!!!!!

I tried 5 different sizes and still never found one that fit right.

Dale,
I'm looking for a 4" V Band clamp for the exhaust exit of the turbo (round), which I think I just found on racepartsolutions. As for the flipped header flanges, I'll tell my welder to cut them off and weld pipe straight to it. I believe that's 2.5" on the collector of the FRP headers?

speaking of flanges. does anyone make blank flanges for the 2v motors. i have been making my own, but would rather purchase them if someone makes them.

i'm using the 2v fms shorties, and the driver's side is 2.25" right before the collector, so i am welding on a 2.25" piece then transitioning up to 2.5" right after. the pass. side is not exactly round, but with some work you can get a 2.5" tube on there somehow...

here you go:
Lightning SOHC Flange 4.6L - 1/2" 1018 CRS - Laser Cut

and they are even on sale!

Pretty nice website, even for all the piping that would be needed in a turbo set up or even a custom exhaust set up.

NO he wants A 4 inch V band.. Racepartsolutions has them in steel. I just got 4 of them from them. I don't know what to tell you but there on there website.
