@@FabCoUK , but there's brackets and then there's the Eiffel Tower 🗼 on its side bracket! Especially if you triangulate the three rods with thinner bar! That would certainly be an epic bracket, actually I can hear it "make the noise" of perfection!
I could watch this guy for hours. Makes everything that I’ve ever tried to do look woefully inadequate. A bit like Alan Millyard with the work he does with motorbikes. Clever gits must have got my share of talent because I get tired just watching.
Lovely detail in this and thanks for taking the time to document it for all of us to watch. Nice muaic choices too, really nice to hear some fuzz on a timelapse rather than the norm
That manifold is lovely. Great job. Your welding skills blow me away. Love the Allegro and Princess builds. Not many other TH-camrs show builds in so much detail. 👍👍
Beautiful welding, good explanations on the reasons you do stuff, goes to show all the experience required to plan out something as (relatively) unambiguous as a turbo install, great skills👍
Watching you juggle bits of tube around made me feel much better about my struggles! I did laugh when you said there wasn't much space though.. even your starter tubes would be in my footwell 😅
Here’s an idea. How about using a suitable lump of memory foam, or similar, to hold the turbo In position? That should leave both hands free to position bars and brackets.
HI.. Im a huge fan of Your FabCo channel. Not the less this Allegro sleeper project. I love it.. My mum and dad had a few Allegro´s back in the late 70s.. The Allegro were, maybe not, one of the biggest highlights in car building history.. So, turning this Austin into a Turbo beast, is just fun. It takes quite a skilled craftmanship AND Tig welder to build such a manifold, I can tell.. Really nice done. Keep up the great work.. Greetings from Denmark..
So, had a great party weekend getting "daft" thanks to some "random" guy getting a new shiny hat, I was thinking, maybe they should have given it to you ?, after all you do have a Princess, 😅 Another great episode, thank-you.
Back for another watch as may have to build a k20 manifold soon 😎 what’s the advantage on 347? I was thinking of trying to make a collector, that cast one looks nice though I’m assuming better flow than a home made one.
I've always been under the impression each branch needs to the same length so there isn't uneven pressure across the cylinders, is that not an issue with turbos?
Do you realise you've got a race of time with @Retropower and there Allegro now. Especially as they're both Honda Engines. Even better, some 1 to 1 races etc when they're both done.
Anyone watching here must be a " Bad Obsession Motor Sports " fan, the super kings of Bracketry . .
Thanks!

Non technical people, and a lot of technical people, wouldn’t realise how much work goes into making a manifold. Beautiful workmanship .
Thanks!
That manifold is a work of art. Nice welding.
🤩

Loving this, and the Princess build. Great to see such quality craftsmanship.
Thank you!
Love watching skilled people at work. Great job!
Thanks!😬
Finish the week with an AllegRo update - made my day! Another great video 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks for watching!
Awesome to see this level of craftsmanship alive and kicking in the UK; top work chap!
Thanks✌🏻
That was a mint update, you make it look easy buddy.
Lovely detail in this and thanks for taking the time to document it for all of us to watch. Nice muaic choices too, really nice to hear some fuzz on a timelapse rather than the norm
Thanks for watching!
That is stunning. I'd hang that on the wall in my lounge ❤
Thank you 😊
Awesome to watch. Seeing the final product you'd think cad designed not big boys Lego 😂. Great to see proper mechanical engineering in action.
Thanks!
Allegro, princess and a mini.
You'll get yourself a reputation like that 😂
😃
That mani has come out beautiful superb job
Beautiful welding and very nice design - you're right to prioritise nice runners sweeps above equal runner length.
Thanks!
Outstanding work. A joy to watch, you make it look easy, which is the sign of a master craftsman
I see a new 28min FabCo AllegRo upload only 7mins ago, i automatically hit like 😅😂👍🏻
😎
@@FabCoUK Cool exhaust mani btw. Had a similar one made by "Crazycage" off the Ford scene years ago, for a Zetec Turbo build.
Passion in his work! Great job.
That manifold is lovely. Great job. Your welding skills blow me away. Love the Allegro and Princess builds. Not many other TH-camrs show builds in so much detail. 👍👍
Thanks!
Awesome, The Allegro definitely wont have respiratory issues.
Beautiful welding, good explanations on the reasons you do stuff, goes to show all the experience required to plan out something as (relatively) unambiguous as a turbo install, great skills👍
Thanks!
I love the opening music.
Thanks!
First a video from Alex/mat/Freddy and the Stig, and now one from Adam. The day is getting better all the time!!
Thanks for watching 🙂
Love this stuff, strangely relaxing. Top work.
1st rate work! And your floor is clean enough to eat off!
Keep it up!
Thanks!
It’s like watching an artist at work 👍
Thanks!😊
Beautiful work. Makes me think I should go learn to weld.
Give it a go!
Been around this kind of stuff most of my life, Lovin your quality work, keep your vids coming, very enjoyable, great format… thanks :-)
Thank you!
Watching you juggle bits of tube around made me feel much better about my struggles! I did laugh when you said there wasn't much space though.. even your starter tubes would be in my footwell 😅
Thanks for watching!
A thing of beauty
Nice work buddy. Weld turntable looks like it saves some time and argon! 😎
Thanks for watching!
Great work. Love a good manifold build!
Great video, just want more, lol. Princess or allegro, not bothered which. Keep up the good work (just more, lol)
They’ll come as fast as I can. This is just a hobby 😊
Not a criticism, just like the videos. Keep doin em 👍
Surprised, but happy to see another episode so soon. Cool.
Thanks!
So interesting and in awe of your skill. Thanks for taking the time to share.
Thanks for watching 😬

It could work potentially yeah!

Thank you!
What epic welding.
Thanks!
This was a lot more captivating to watch than I thought it would be!! Subscribed!! 🙌🏻
Thanks!
Quality workmanship & attention to detail as always, immaculate 👌🏾
Fantastic work and awesome welding and manifold tools. Top skills on making it too.
Thanks John!😬
Extra nice. A big job, squished into 28 mins. Looks the "Ducks Nuts"!!!
Wish I could make it in 28 minutes that’s for sure🤣
I’m only here for the brackets. No, seriously you’re doing a brilliant job , loving every minute of it. 👍
Thanks for watching 😊
Your fabrication skills are a pleasure to watch 👌👌👌
Thanks!
A work of art!
Thanks!
Nice work. great update 2x👍
Thanks!😬
@@FabCoUK 👍👍
I wish i was that clever, amazing to see what skill goes into making a manifold from scratch, great video
Thanks for watching!
Some of the best custom work in the world,great video
Thank you!
Awesome work and video as always 👍
Thanks for watching 😊
Bonkers. Love it. Could you do a 'shed build Spitfire Mk. V' next? And put an extra big supercharger on it??
Couldn’t get out of bed for a Spitfire, sorry!
@@FabCoUK I meant the plane, not the Triumph btw!
Brilliant fabrication. Your welding skills are awesome..
Thanks! 🙂
Awesome work as usual. Great video and series 👏
Thanks for watching 🙂
Beautiful mate!
Thank you!
Jonny should be chuffed with that work of art, I would be 👍✌️
Thanks 😊
@@FabCoUK
Any idea of a time frame for either the cheese wedge or the agro ? and are u doing this on your own, a one man band as such ? ✌️🇬🇧
Superb skill on show awesome finished product.
Thanks!😃
Great work and great content pls keep it coming
That was so cool. I've always wanted to see the process of making an exhaust manifold. Thank you for the detail!
Great video again mate, keep em coming.
Thanks 😊
That is beautiful, Adam!
Thanks!
Really awesome seeing the progress of this build - keep up the good work!
Thanks!😊
Stellar work as per
Love to see the process Adam, incredible work as always dude 😍
Thanks ✌🏻✌🏻
Impressive welding skills - in awe :)
Thanks😁
Top skills on display.
😁
@@FabCoUK Tidy work. I look forward to seeing this build completed.
Awesome ... appreciate your commentary explaining what and why you are doing what you are doing
Thanks!😊
Max respect.
Fantastic workmanship, mate. 👍
Thank you!
Great video mate
Thanks!
A work of art. How many hours to design, mock up, test fit, weld, check fitting again and finish welding?
About 15 hours work
So, had a great party weekend getting "daft" thanks to some "random" guy getting a new shiny hat, I was thinking, maybe they should have given it to you ?, after all you do have a Princess, 😅 Another great episode, thank-you.
I don’t just have ‘a’ Princess, I have THE Princess ;)
A good point & well made 🤔 !, I know which one I'll be watching ....
Fascinating process and awesome craftsmanship
Thank you 😃
Back for another watch as may have to build a k20 manifold soon 😎 what’s the advantage on 347?
I was thinking of trying to make a collector, that cast one looks nice though I’m assuming better flow than a home made one.
6:51 "Jojo was a man who thought he was a loner..." 😁👍
🎶
incredible welding...Excellent
Thanks!😁
It’s a think of beauty!
Thank you!
A genius a work
😅
Cheers. Great job
Thank you
So how long did you spend on it? It looks fantastic!
Johny led me here but, I’m very happy that he did! Lovely work and great explanation. You mentioned you’re using 347 SS pipe but, what size/dia?
That's what I'm wondering. I watched the video twice and skipped back and forth, trying to see if I missed it somewhere.
Your attention to detail is impeccable sir! I wonder if you’d be interested in doing something similar for my VW Golf mk1 20V turbo swap?
Not taking on anything else currently, sorry!
You got enough stickout there sr
Nice job! 👌
Thanks for watching 😊
I've always been under the impression each branch needs to the same length so there isn't uneven pressure across the cylinders, is that not an issue with turbos?
Makes next time no difference on a turbo car. If I was building a race car it’d be a consideration, but this is simply a road car
This is a stupid question, but the exhaust manifold is going to a junction in the output of the turbo, right? Is that normal?
The exhaust manifold feeds the turbo inlet 😊
Awesome work
Thank you!
Why no video on how you got in there between the pipes to weld them to the collector.. or atleast the last pipe...!
Can’t film everything, sorry!
If you see J S driving an allegro thats your stealth element out the window !
😎
Quality!
❤️
are those 'Lego' thingies expensive? Beautiful work man!
Depends how much money you have!
@@FabCoUK Ah, that answers than then lol
Weight watchers! 👍
you may be hearing from Paul McCartney's lawyers 😆 6:50
🎶
Is there no benefit to making turbo primaries equal length, or is that a constraint too far?
There’s much less of a benefit on a turbo application, and it’s just a road car after all.
OOH my good you are so SLOVEEEEE
whats a 'SLOVEEEEE'?
👍😎👍
✌🏻
Great work, thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!🤩
Awesome
Thanks!
Do you realise you've got a race of time with @Retropower and there Allegro now. Especially as they're both Honda Engines. Even better, some 1 to 1 races etc when they're both done.
There’s no race against time. It’s done when it’s done 😌
Skookum as frig as ever
Good enough for the girls I go out with!
How's the Princess going?
Haven’t touched it in a few weeks!
That plastic pipe stuff, has to make you job 99% easier than it would be without it?
Yeah it’s a game changer. Well worth the investment if you do a few!
