@@FabCoUK , but there's brackets and then there's the Eiffel Tower 🗼 on its side bracket! Especially if you triangulate the three rods with thinner bar! That would certainly be an epic bracket, actually I can hear it "make the noise" of perfection!
I could watch this guy for hours. Makes everything that I’ve ever tried to do look woefully inadequate. A bit like Alan Millyard with the work he does with motorbikes. Clever gits must have got my share of talent because I get tired just watching.
Lovely detail in this and thanks for taking the time to document it for all of us to watch. Nice muaic choices too, really nice to hear some fuzz on a timelapse rather than the norm
Beautiful welding, good explanations on the reasons you do stuff, goes to show all the experience required to plan out something as (relatively) unambiguous as a turbo install, great skills👍
That manifold is lovely. Great job. Your welding skills blow me away. Love the Allegro and Princess builds. Not many other UA-camrs show builds in so much detail. 👍👍
Watching you juggle bits of tube around made me feel much better about my struggles! I did laugh when you said there wasn't much space though.. even your starter tubes would be in my footwell 😅
HI.. Im a huge fan of Your FabCo channel. Not the less this Allegro sleeper project. I love it.. My mum and dad had a few Allegro´s back in the late 70s.. The Allegro were, maybe not, one of the biggest highlights in car building history.. So, turning this Austin into a Turbo beast, is just fun. It takes quite a skilled craftmanship AND Tig welder to build such a manifold, I can tell.. Really nice done. Keep up the great work.. Greetings from Denmark..
Here’s an idea. How about using a suitable lump of memory foam, or similar, to hold the turbo In position? That should leave both hands free to position bars and brackets.
Back for another watch as may have to build a k20 manifold soon 😎 what’s the advantage on 347? I was thinking of trying to make a collector, that cast one looks nice though I’m assuming better flow than a home made one.
So, had a great party weekend getting "daft" thanks to some "random" guy getting a new shiny hat, I was thinking, maybe they should have given it to you ?, after all you do have a Princess, 😅 Another great episode, thank-you.
I've always been under the impression each branch needs to the same length so there isn't uneven pressure across the cylinders, is that not an issue with turbos?
Do you realise you've got a race of time with @Retropower and there Allegro now. Especially as they're both Honda Engines. Even better, some 1 to 1 races etc when they're both done.
Absolutely love your work and narration but please ditch the louder than your talking background music. At least make it quieter. Shouldn't have to adjust the volume when you aren't talking
Anyone watching here must be a " Bad Obsession Motor Sports " fan, the super kings of Bracketry . .
Thanks!

Non technical people, and a lot of technical people, wouldn’t realise how much work goes into making a manifold. Beautiful workmanship .
Thanks!

Loving this, and the Princess build. Great to see such quality craftsmanship.
Thank you!
That manifold is a work of art. Nice welding.
🤩
Love watching skilled people at work. Great job!
Thanks!😬
Finish the week with an AllegRo update - made my day! Another great video 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks for watching!
That was a mint update, you make it look easy buddy.
Awesome to see this level of craftsmanship alive and kicking in the UK; top work chap!
Thanks✌🏻
Awesome to watch. Seeing the final product you'd think cad designed not big boys Lego 😂. Great to see proper mechanical engineering in action.
Thanks!
Beautiful welding and very nice design - you're right to prioritise nice runners sweeps above equal runner length.
Thanks!
That is stunning. I'd hang that on the wall in my lounge ❤
Thank you 😊
Outstanding work. A joy to watch, you make it look easy, which is the sign of a master craftsman
That mani has come out beautiful superb job
Lovely detail in this and thanks for taking the time to document it for all of us to watch. Nice muaic choices too, really nice to hear some fuzz on a timelapse rather than the norm
Thanks for watching!
Allegro, princess and a mini.
You'll get yourself a reputation like that 😂
😃
I love the opening music.
Thanks!
Awesome, The Allegro definitely wont have respiratory issues.
Beautiful welding, good explanations on the reasons you do stuff, goes to show all the experience required to plan out something as (relatively) unambiguous as a turbo install, great skills👍
Thanks!
1st rate work! And your floor is clean enough to eat off!
Keep it up!
Thanks!
Passion in his work! Great job.
It’s like watching an artist at work 👍
Thanks!😊
I see a new 28min FabCo AllegRo upload only 7mins ago, i automatically hit like 😅😂👍🏻
😎
@@FabCoUK Cool exhaust mani btw. Had a similar one made by "Crazycage" off the Ford scene years ago, for a Zetec Turbo build.
That manifold is lovely. Great job. Your welding skills blow me away. Love the Allegro and Princess builds. Not many other UA-camrs show builds in so much detail. 👍👍
Thanks!
Beautiful work. Makes me think I should go learn to weld.
Give it a go!
Love this stuff, strangely relaxing. Top work.
Nice work buddy. Weld turntable looks like it saves some time and argon! 😎
Thanks for watching!
Watching you juggle bits of tube around made me feel much better about my struggles! I did laugh when you said there wasn't much space though.. even your starter tubes would be in my footwell 😅
Thanks for watching!
A thing of beauty
Great work. Love a good manifold build!
What epic welding.
Thanks!
Been around this kind of stuff most of my life, Lovin your quality work, keep your vids coming, very enjoyable, great format… thanks :-)
Thank you!
Your fabrication skills are a pleasure to watch 👌👌👌
Thanks!
First a video from Alex/mat/Freddy and the Stig, and now one from Adam. The day is getting better all the time!!
Thanks for watching 🙂
A work of art!
Thanks!

This was a lot more captivating to watch than I thought it would be!! Subscribed!! 🙌🏻
Thanks!
Quality workmanship & attention to detail as always, immaculate 👌🏾
So interesting and in awe of your skill. Thanks for taking the time to share.
Thanks for watching 😬
Max respect.
Great video, just want more, lol. Princess or allegro, not bothered which. Keep up the good work (just more, lol)
They’ll come as fast as I can. This is just a hobby 😊
Not a criticism, just like the videos. Keep doin em 👍
Nice work. great update 2x👍
Thanks!😬
@@FabCoUK 👍👍
Extra nice. A big job, squished into 28 mins. Looks the "Ducks Nuts"!!!
Wish I could make it in 28 minutes that’s for sure🤣
Awesome work and video as always 👍
Thanks for watching 😊
Surprised, but happy to see another episode so soon. Cool.
Thanks!
I’m only here for the brackets. No, seriously you’re doing a brilliant job , loving every minute of it. 👍
Thanks for watching 😊
Great work and great content pls keep it coming
Fantastic work and awesome welding and manifold tools. Top skills on making it too.
Thanks John!😬
Beautiful mate!
Thank you!
It’s a think of beauty!
Thank you!
A genius a work
😅
Stellar work as per
I wish i was that clever, amazing to see what skill goes into making a manifold from scratch, great video
Thanks for watching!
Some of the best custom work in the world,great video
Thank you!
Great video again mate, keep em coming.
Thanks 😊
Bonkers. Love it. Could you do a 'shed build Spitfire Mk. V' next? And put an extra big supercharger on it??
Couldn’t get out of bed for a Spitfire, sorry!
@@FabCoUK I meant the plane, not the Triumph btw!
Awesome work as usual. Great video and series 👏
Thanks for watching 🙂
Brilliant fabrication. Your welding skills are awesome..
Thanks! 🙂
Great video mate
Thanks!
Cheers. Great job
Thank you
That is beautiful, Adam!
Thanks!
Superb skill on show awesome finished product.
Thanks!😃
Here’s an idea. How about using a suitable lump of memory foam, or similar, to hold the turbo In position? That should leave both hands free to position bars and brackets.
It could work potentially yeah!
Fantastic workmanship, mate. 👍
Thank you!
Awesome ... appreciate your commentary explaining what and why you are doing what you are doing
Thanks!😊

I was thinking of trying to make a collector, that cast one looks nice though I’m assuming better flow than a home made one.
Love to see the process Adam, incredible work as always dude 😍
Thanks ✌🏻✌🏻
Jonny should be chuffed with that work of art, I would be 👍✌️
Thanks 😊
@@FabCoUK
Any idea of a time frame for either the cheese wedge or the agro ? and are u doing this on your own, a one man band as such ? ✌️🇬🇧
Top skills on display.
😁
@@FabCoUK Tidy work. I look forward to seeing this build completed.
Impressive welding skills - in awe :)
Thanks😁
incredible welding...Excellent
Thanks!😁
Really awesome seeing the progress of this build - keep up the good work!
Thanks!😊
Fascinating process and awesome craftsmanship
Thank you 😃
That was so cool. I've always wanted to see the process of making an exhaust manifold. Thank you for the detail!
A work of art. How many hours to design, mock up, test fit, weld, check fitting again and finish welding?
About 15 hours work
So how long did you spend on it? It looks fantastic!
So, had a great party weekend getting "daft" thanks to some "random" guy getting a new shiny hat, I was thinking, maybe they should have given it to you ?, after all you do have a Princess, 😅 Another great episode, thank-you.
I don’t just have ‘a’ Princess, I have THE Princess ;)
A good point & well made 🤔 !, I know which one I'll be watching ....
Johny led me here but, I’m very happy that he did! Lovely work and great explanation. You mentioned you’re using 347 SS pipe but, what size/dia?
That's what I'm wondering. I watched the video twice and skipped back and forth, trying to see if I missed it somewhere.
Nice job! 👌
Thanks for watching 😊
Quality!
❤️
6:51 "Jojo was a man who thought he was a loner..." 😁👍
🎶
You got enough stickout there sr
Awesome work
Thank you!
Your attention to detail is impeccable sir! I wonder if you’d be interested in doing something similar for my VW Golf mk1 20V turbo swap?
Not taking on anything else currently, sorry!
I've always been under the impression each branch needs to the same length so there isn't uneven pressure across the cylinders, is that not an issue with turbos?
Makes next time no difference on a turbo car. If I was building a race car it’d be a consideration, but this is simply a road car
Awesome
Thanks!
This is a stupid question, but the exhaust manifold is going to a junction in the output of the turbo, right? Is that normal?
The exhaust manifold feeds the turbo inlet 😊
Great work, thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!🤩
OOH my good you are so SLOVEEEEE
whats a 'SLOVEEEEE'?
you may be hearing from Paul McCartney's lawyers 😆 6:50
🎶
are those 'Lego' thingies expensive? Beautiful work man!
Depends how much money you have!
@@FabCoUK Ah, that answers than then lol
Why no video on how you got in there between the pipes to weld them to the collector.. or atleast the last pipe...!
Can’t film everything, sorry!
If you see J S driving an allegro thats your stealth element out the window !
😎
Do you realise you've got a race of time with @Retropower and there Allegro now. Especially as they're both Honda Engines. Even better, some 1 to 1 races etc when they're both done.
There’s no race against time. It’s done when it’s done 😌
Is there no benefit to making turbo primaries equal length, or is that a constraint too far?
There’s much less of a benefit on a turbo application, and it’s just a road car after all.
Weight watchers! 👍
Absolutely love your work and narration but please ditch the louder than your talking background music.
At least make it quieter. Shouldn't have to adjust the volume when you aren't talking
👍😎👍
✌🏻
Skookum as frig as ever
Good enough for the girls I go out with!
How's the Princess going?
Haven’t touched it in a few weeks!
