I've been PM'd about updates and finally have something to add to this thread.

About the only thing left from the original design is the drawings themselves.

Using 90* elbows to sweep into the main runner was cost prohibitive and the slip joint fell into the same category as well as getting predictable results was questionable.

So I basically borrowed all the good ideas that I liked from other designs and am using them for my manifold.

Attached is the over view of the manifold as it sits now. The elbows and "Ts" have been cut down to fit properly and chamfered for welding. As some will notice this is how another manifold was built recently.
