Wish I had more pics of building it but the parts list is pretty minimal
y7 manifold
3/16 brake line
a bunch of plumbing fittings cramming that npt into the block like a boss.
td04
random peices of charge pipes from all kinds of cars
some chunks of 2.5" pipe
ohh say 30-50 cans of beer

The exhaust is easy and can be made anysize just get 2 of the smallest transion exhaust pieces. Such as 2.5" Id to 2.5" od and slide them together 4, 3/8 or m10 nuts and heavy duty springs we antiseized the on pipe and it formed a nice seal just grease or red rtv should work as well. I bought everything at fleet farm.
