You probably already know this but the 929 exhaust manifold is titanium as standard.
Unless you intend to use it in its standard shape you will need someone who can weld and fabricate titanium. Not everyone can, although the welding bit isn't too difficult according to my welder friend.
We bought two standard systems for our 929 engined Phoenix and cut them up into straights and bends.
Its just a matter of cutting and shutting from there in. Making the collector was fun though. The material just bends back and needs a lot of persuasion to stay put.
We were using 1.5mm titanium though. Next time we would use something thinner.
Are you going to perform a similar exercise??
