Great content. Recently discovered this project and it kicks ass. I’ve been looking forward to the next upload. Can’t wait to see it running. Keep the videos coming!
Great project guys- for your connection to your block flange ( the oval port shape) instead of cutting and pulling apart the tube( to large a gap) to make the oval try making a hobb in the correct oval shape and after annealing the piece simply push the hobb in (using a stout press and some grease) to form the oval to round connector. clean and easy. Also I know it is maybe to late but did you consider two 3 into 1 headers on each side like the Ferrari Daytona? That is my project-a Daytona replica with the M120 and a late model corvette transaxle like the original car configuration. Keep your gaps to a minimum also. Built a set like these for my straight six BMW M3.Two 3 into 1 on that. Made the 5 inch long collectors as well. Make great power- they are 34 inch long primaries, but space is a problem for the V12 with 6 pipes on each side. You should try welding them yourself- you will get nothing but better with the practice. Keep your weld joints oil and grease free- wipe them down with acetone- no residue. Good luck !
Robert you are the man, We are also doing an M120 project as well and I have a CNC machine and was going to make a die to put the end of the tube into to press the OD into shape.. I just did the math and 3D scanned the entire engine to get all of the data, but more specifically the port shape exactly which works best with 1.875" x 0.095" wall primaries in order to get zero loss transitioning from Oval to round. So next up is to Machine the die to make the oval shape from 1.875" repeatable. but if any of you guys need anything don't hesitate to give me a shout -- Brett

Looking forward to an update on this. As fas as I have found, you are the only person out there making equal length headers for the M120!
Discovered your channel yesterday and was pissed cz i though I have to wait more for a video
5 hours later here you are😍
Always happy to see your uploads. Makes me feel better about not working on my shitbox. 😂
Excited for your progress. Can't wait for that first sound video.
Thanks we’re excited too! Can’t wait for the first crack of the throttle.. A bit down the road but looking forward to it!
Love the updates on the m120! Keep it up 👍🏽
Keep up the good work!!

Update?
Really enjoying these updates! What engine management system do you plan to use?
