This post it to show that we have a local builder then can do some amazing job if anybody ever wanted to get anything done custom.
yeah but this builder if it was someone like me came in and wanted a manifold and wasnt his buddy i would end up with a huge bill well over what i could get a Quality piece from full race or ams or many more for. I was trying to remain neutral on this but i have a friend he "built" a manifold for and it looks like pure **** and he charged him a large sum of money to build. But as i stated before

GOOD LUCK!

That's a big no-no!
Nice welds though.

The bend is actually called a "cheater" bend, and that is due to the h22's having the ****ty alternator position... it was jigged, cleaned, and welded... Nothing on my fab work is hacked, i put alot of work into my manifolds, that is why it takes me a good bit to make them... i've yet to make a manifold that wasn't for something weird. Balistoc evo i have never made a mani for any of your friends so your mistaking me for someone else. I'm doing this for Tim because i've know him for a long time, and I always respected his desire for cars. One person that i can trully say is not about **** talking or drama, he just loves the sport.. Unlinke EvoCrazy and his false acusations of me being a thief, if i stole im sure id have some sort of theft record wouldnt you think??? and there is a site for that www.cmpd.org.. My full name is Darius Mikalauskas... Look me up, and then maybe you'll quit saying false remarks towards me.. I never stole ONE thing in my life, i don't need to. I have everything i want, and i've always busted my *** for it.. PS Im new to the forum guys, stay updated for Tim's pics, should be a killer setup...
