AMMFAB pic thread
well aarons got a thread so i figured it would be ok if i did one. for starters my name is mike, im 27 and im a detroit diesel engine tech by day actually night now. anyways ive been into the go fast seen for about 10 years now and about 6 years ago i wanted to build an intake manifold for my gti. well luckily my work has a tig welder, so a few weeks of dicking around after work and i was able to lay beads on aluminum (which looked like bird shit but i thought they were damn good back then) so i went ahead and built an intake manifold. i then wanted to do more stuff to my car on my own like porting the head, so i took a stab at that too. well 6 years, lots of time, research and practice later ive gotten a bit better then back then and do this steadily on the side out of my garage now. i primarily deal with neons/srt's and ever so often dsms but im always up for doing new stuff. i havent done much steel so thats not my strong point i do tons of aluminum though. hover the next few days ill post up some stuff ive done in the past and stuff thats been more recent, the shitty thing is there isnt alot of variety because i primarily deal with the mentioned vehicles above. owell no biggie there, feel free to comment. mods if theres any issues pleas let me know.

Really nice work man !!
Iam digging it. |
really good work.. nice manifolds!!
|
Soooo you have flowbench at where you work or what?
I like your work man, props to you! how come no Honda work? |
That some nice work.
Do you work here locally? Any dyno results of the heads? |
i dont have a flow bench unfortunately, i have ray at basko do all mine, so these flow results are not biased in any way. i drop off a head, they flow it, i pay, they give me my head and printout. i wish i had one, then i could do just the smallest stweaks and see what they do to flow........ and flow the intake manifolds too. i have not done any honda stuff yet......... mainly becasue theres so many people that do honda head work nationally ( portflow, rlz, head games, endyn, etc) that not many people will trust somebody theyve never heard of. actually i take that back i did a d15 or 16 head for my machinist a few weeks ago, it was nothing special, ill see if i can get it and gets some pics of it tomorrow when i go up there. anyways thats basically why. but then about a month ago i was up at tri tec with my machinist and was talking to henry joe and a few other people and they said there were no locals that do good head porting, so i thought hmmm, ok =) and no back to back dynos yet

Work looks really good man :thumbup: Besides intake manifolds/heads what else do you plan to mess around with? |
