Git a load of the exhaust manifold on the engine that comes with this '69 Charger.

Now that is an interesting project for the right person. I haven't seen many B-body engine bays with a slant, but I am guessing that it is down right cavernous. There is a lot of room for a better manifold, and a really big turbo in there.

Interesting. The collector is a little wonky, but the fab work doesn't look bad at all. Too bad he chose such a small turbo. Looks like it's from a Turbo II.

I'm wondering if internally the collector has some flow control so it's not as bad as it seems. (the boxy collector is to make sure there's not any leaks)

He who made it states: " I was bored one day and started tinkering. Not real pretty, but for my first attempt, I thought it was good. The center box has a shaped divider in the middle, so the exhaust pulse from #1 doesn't push back on the pulse from #6."
