Cummins Drift Truck a la Dum-Dum

[Dum-Dum]

Irwin probably make the best, loads of various size kits available, probably need one of the larger ones if you're messing with small truck and 4x4 stuff

Cheers mate, they ain't cheap though and I currently only need the 10mm or 13mm heads.

Those manifold bolts towards the rear if the engine is from a lorry very rarely come out... Normally end up cutting them and extracting....But great news if they will!

What is manifold coming off for? Flipping it for top mount turbo ftw?

Deep joy, the heads are mullered, I assume it's something to do with how they sit in the truck and being more susceptible to getting wet than the fronts. They look like they'd be fairly easy to drill and tap if I did get the manifold off although obviously it's easier if I don't have to.

Oh and yeah flipping the manifold to high mount the turbo. Mainly cos I want it sticking out the bonnet cos I'm a massive chav?

+1 for those Irwin bolt removers, they get me out of the shit at work so often it's unreal! Well worth heating the offending item first though.

Heat the head of the bolt to get the extractor to bite better or heat the actual head where the thread goes into it to get it to come out better? Or both? I'm gonna need another bottle of MAPP gas lol

Wish I'd of known the price of the exhaust manifold gaskets for this before starting with the fire as they are about £8 each and there is 6 of them and I managed to set fire to one already.
