    Custom intake

    A question to those that have made their own (or modified a standard one). I plan on taking a 3B item cutting it at the point where the runners go into the main body, turning the body through 180 degrees about it's length and rewelding it, to make it a front inlet.
    With it being cast aluminium is that going to create a problem? I have all the euipment to weld ally (mig and tig) but have only welded ally sheet not cast before. I am going to mig it but would like any BTDT's.

    Dont MIG it the weld will be porous, it will look strong but wont hold air BTDT, it should TIG ok with the correct TIG kit ie AC an inverter wont do it.
