See now this is what I was asking about in a few other threads, seems like this would be the better solution to running these. I dig it good job.

well everything I have on steed speed will be put on hold untill I figure out if he is going to start producing 2'' manifolds. It sounds like that is what he is going to start doing after our talk this morning. Unless you already have the 2.5 manifolds and want to use them.

That would be really awesome if the steed speeds were 2" instead of 2.5"

I'm not an expert in gas flow or anything but it just seems to me that by having the little 2.5in bubble built in right there at the back and for the turn before reducing back down to 2in is actually a good thing. I know its a pain for make up-pipes and what have you and I wouldn't want to use 2.5in up-pipes the whole way up but it seems to me that by having that little bubble/chamber (or whatever else you want to call it) you are allowing the exhaust gases coming out cylinders 7&8 to have some room to expand flow out to help equalize the pressures on all of the cylinders. Perhaps if he starts making the manifolds with 2in outlets for the 6.0, he'll redesign the angle on how the gases from cylinders 7&8 enter the mix. Either way, I'm interested to see what he comes up with.
