does any1 know how to fab up a 3inch dump pipe or steer me in right direction for 2.8gu,,, got a mate who is a fabricator and has a 9second vl commodore whos done all of his own work on his car so i thought it would be a good idea if he could fab me up exhaust system for my 4b he had a quick look at my 4b and said couldnt be done,,, i laughed at him and told him every man and his dog is doin this 3 inch dump pipe,,, obviously he hasnt worked on a patrol... i really want him to do it cause it will be so cheap for me...

are they a 5 bolt flange???
if so i remember a bloke on another forum saying that 5 bolt flanges are almost exactly the same size as a 3 inch pipe and he just bashed, tack welded and bent his into shape. took about half an hour or so.

thanks again troy,,, see how me n mate go on this project might be a few people interested on here to buy supply and fit 3inch custom mandrel bend exhaust system for a cheaper price from his auto n fabricator shop newly opened in western sydney... R & B ENGINEERING fabrications & automotive customs...

If you can wait I'll post up very detailed pics of mine as I did a lot of welding and grinding to smooth out the exhaust flow.

Can I do the same with a 3.0L Turbo, interested and watching this thread.

 

[Troys 5.7 GU]

No you don't but it's pretty pointless not doing it at the same time.

You certainly can but I'm not sure if you need a 3" for a 3.0l. Best for those who have them to answer that

Thanks for that Troy, i will have to look into it more, i think
