If you have ever looked in Phat240’s enigne bay you would have noticed the intake pipe and how shitty it was. I finally got around to helping him out and made a new intake pipe. Its a tight spot but i managed to make something decent, even with my shady welding skillz. :lol: If any welders have any tips on how to get less splatter with a Flux Wire feed welder i would appreciate the advice.

Did you make that BOV flange or did you buy it and weld it on? ---

> [@Nis240](#): > > Old intake pipe WOW I wonder who would even put something like that on a car. I love straight 60 degree turns. :drinkers: But the welding is looking good. Nice to see someone is cleaning up Jamie’s car. ---
