LOL, once I have the 'bench' part set up there will be pics of it flow testing my carrera manifold.

I hope to have most of it done by this weekend.

Thats awesome man. I have a set of heads I just ported that i would like to get flowed. Maybe I could do a set-up like this, or, bring you a six-pack and use yours?

I needed to make a lot of pieces for the flow bench not to mention the custom bracketry and plumbing I need to make for the 930 so I spent $87 at lowes this weekend on a nice tool for myself.

Here I am getting ready to do a test head flow to make sure it will be worth building.

There are the little plastic flow stabilizers I made to make sure the flow into the measurement tube was relatively even.
