Bolts on like any other manifold. Just use the correct procedure and sequence and al should be good.
The top section requires the specific lower section from memory.
Be sure to post some snaps 👍

Did yours have the spring one in? Nice clean work. Are you not getting this engineered?

Copper was free. Cheaper and easier way to do hard line.
We use copper on caravans etc for gas lines. If clipped right it’s ok
This is all hard drawn copper and crimp fittings. It won’t move or bend, unless someone rear ends me

Looking good. I know your paint about those headers.
Just noticed you have you heater pump nipples blocked. You should run the loop. Blocking them creates unneeded pressure build up from what I’ve read.

Made a start on the ice box install. Everything is mocked up. I’ll head to Gisborn tomorrow and get the copper flare to JIC spec. Then I’ll come back and tighten it all up and proceed to crimp.
I don’t think flow will be an issue.
Also picked up some billet valve covers with should look the part.

You can tarnish the coating during the tuning process. Happened to mine.
