as someone who has built a couple of ls and rotary headers the amount of craft and skill that went into that is mind boggling. I cant even imagine the hours that went into figuring that puzzle out, when to weld what where and such. absolutely incredible piece of art and i cant wait to hear how it sounds
Thats awesome. Well worth the wait. Concerning the airbox situation, it would be worth considering getting fresh air from the cowl. Quite often the base of the windshield is a high-pressure spot and can be ideal for not only getting cold air into the box, but it can also offer a ram-air effect at speed. Running under the header seems like it could be a recipe for very high IAT's on track. Another cool effect of getting air from the cowl is that it gives you incredible induction noises inside the cabin at WOT. 10-1 headers paired with cowl fed ITB's would make this the absolute ultimate noise making machine.
Well that might not be an option consider he wants to keep everything stock looking with minimum things poking out/or cutting. Hence the design of the crazy header
@@rhinohippo55 You might be thinking of the big American cowl scoop bonnets. Cowl induction can be done without any cosmetic changes. Scoops, bulges or grills are only optional if you want to amplify the effect, and those can all still be done tastefully and discreetly if required. The cowl induction I'm referring to naturally takes in air through the existing scuttle-panel (I suppose you could call it "scuttle-induction"), as it's a high-pressure zone. Most cars take fresh air for the cabin from that location for a similar reason.
It's definitely a consideration. I litterally just replied to someone that proposed lifting the back of the bonnet to let hot air escape, that you can't do that because is a high pressure area.
@@driftworks I remember seeing a video where a chap raised the back of the bonnet and stuck little bits of string all along it, was really interesting seeing what happened when driving
I just can't believe how "easily" it fitted. One coolant pipe removed, a little bit of wiggling and voila, it was home. Madness and an absolute credit to not only the design of the system, but the actual manufacture of it.
Clicked so fast EDIT: My dear lord when you buttoned everything back up and it looked stock again... This is an unbelievable build. One of the most impressive things I've ever seen without a doubt
I am thoroughly astounded at how well that whole piece went in and how much room there is! I really thought the hood wouldn't close, you have to pull the engine to just install the headers, etc etc. Its truly a masterpiece! Just wow. 😱
Looked way bigger in the box. Once you guys put it on the engine it definitely changed my perspective of how big those headers are. This has got to be the craziest exhaust I've ever seen. I can't believe it fits under the hood and clears everything. It just looks so insane. I cannot wait to hear what it sounds like.
As gorgeous as this is, heat management is very likely to be a complete nightmare ! I really wonder how this will sound tho, the few vids I've seen with 6 to 1 and 8 to 1 make the engine sound more high pitched. With this engine already being high pitched, I really wanna know what it is gonna be like
Phil when you where talking about air box ideas all I could think was it needs to stay itb’s but run a scoop or a vent in the bonnet with some heat shielding built into the bonnet to help IAT’s Some shiny velocity stacks in the middle of that 10 to 1 would look amazing!
With headers that amazingly beautiful and intricate, i absolutely would not run a hood on it, or at the very least, cutout a hood to showcase that amazing piece of craftsmanship.
I can’t believe that was all built and designed without even seeing the car in person, amazing what technology can do nowadays, either way that’s stunning
This is the coolest looking header assembly ever and not on just any engine. The bmw v10!!!!! Outrageous instation and I just can't wait to see it all done and waiting for the sound to come out???? Woooohoooooo....hey ...just a suggestion.....how about the bonnet cut away to expose the headers
Can see Gold reflective going everywhere in this engine bay. Phil I think you should do a poll on if ceramic coating the headers would be deemed as criminal or not…
@@driftworks fair play Phil, I was only thinking down the lines of being obligated to do so to manage heat. I personally can’t wait to see them evolve after a couple of heat cycles
That just look amazing. Speechless about the fabrication and engineering. Can't wait to hear what this will sound like. Love the work Phil and the DW team.
As engineering porn goes, this is as good as it gets. The level of workmanship boggles the mind. To fab a stainless construction of that size so precisely to spec you need god tier skills. This warms my cold, dead heart.
Looks to good to go in a car, ide love it on the coffee table in the centre of my living room. Just mind boggling the twists and turns with no distortion through the welding, an exhaust on steroids, cant wait to hear it. Take care guys. Loving it.
Absolutely AMAZING! Just the fact that the creator(s) only had digital scans of the engine bay for reference. Beautiful 'Old Meets New', one of a kind masterpiece creation. Now,...how about that intake manifold?
Amazing, pure excitement and cannot wait to see the result. I would like to hear more about the heating combat and how you guys will going to handle the heat extraction. Good luck
That’s a work of art and incredible craftsmanship. For the exhaust run, I hope you run a powered cutout of the front bumper as a straight pipe in front of the tire. Then a normal exhaust back for a normal/sleeper driving sound
If I had to say at the start of the vid would that fit or not, it was literally gonna be 100% no, I’d have put money on it. I’m clearly stuck in the past too, as that’s incredible. Also, once you put the lights and bumper and slam panel back on that thing looked incredible with the bonnet open, love it. Amazing. Mind blowing that that manifold fits when built remotely. Any manifold, never mind the most complex one imaginable lol
The work put in to them is just top tier , but I’d have questions in to the heat soak and excess heat in the bay coil packs hot air intake?? But they look brilliant real show piece
I think you will need to ceramic coat that it’s going to get so hot. I don’t think it will look so bad with the right colour coating. But your the man you know best Phil. It’s going to sound savage ❤
i thought it was cool before but now i see it actually looks reasonably serviceable im amazed, i took it as another youtube car, more of an art piece than function but that actually looks like you could live with it
first time that fitting a part in one of your videos goes easier/faster than expected 🤣, not once the "what a nightmare" phrase was used! 🤣 props to the dutchies behind this crazy beautiful and functional design
That's just a work of art! That is the most wicked set of headers I've ever seen. I do have one question maybe someone could answer. What V10 engine is that? Again, beautiful engine compartment. Can't wait to hear it run. Thank you for sharing your masterpiece!
Please put off every other project and button this thing up. I know that goes against what the project was supposed to be, but this (IMO) is by far one of the coolest builds on UA-cam anywhere right now
That thing looks like it was conceived by H.R. Giger! Incredible engineering involved to even attempt to do that as a single assembly! Bravo! Waiting on the next 4-5 episodes, where Jay is tasked with heat wrapping it…
There is high pressure spot towards windsield over the bonnet. It would be most natural to make heatshields incorporated to the bonnet, then vent the middle in through cut louwres, and have filter also located at the holder under neath the bonnet. And then just open trumpets when you open the bonnet. Long route in snaking from front through pipe salad is asking for a trouble. Also carbon fiber can get the heat but the epoxy in it wont. Heat shielding does help but not indefinitely.
@@unchartedgroupielove yes, depending on the epoxy but between 60 to 160 usually. Heat capability can be lift with using best epoxy in lowest (optimal amount) usually prepreg, heat treatment at cure. And putting foil tape heat reflector on the exhaust side walls. Ensuring decent cooling flow both sides of the part is also essential. But if there is not enough cooling flow the paint from the bonnet will say good bye long before the prepreg parts with gold tape melt.
I get that this was an exceptionally expensive exhaust but you should really order a second one to keep as an art installation in your house! What a bit of engineering!
The base of the windscreen is a high pressure area and perfect for picking up induction air. But you've gotta ceramic coat that manifold and do all you can to 'control' your underhood temps!!
As much as I love this car and exhaust it cant be great to have all that heat wrapped around the engine. And doesn't make servicing the engine any easier I can imagine when the whole front end has to come off to remove it! I will wait and see keep up the great work!
Absolutely beautiful work. Watching the build from the beginning has been eye opening. In hindsight I would cut the front end off including the frame rails. Make a complete tube front end and use pushrod setup to eliminate the strut towers. You guys soldiered through hell with the dry sump, the steering rack, and the headers. The absolute most challenging shoehorning I've ever witnessed.
It looks a bit like a giant Facehugger from Aliens is attacking your engine!! Awesome bit of kit there Phil - would love to see some more about how this was designed and built. Glad to see your enthusiasm is suitably rekindled and I think everyone watching is keen to hear this mad thing bark into life! Cheers guys.
Amazing headers!! But are they just for show or go? When that thing starts to get hot it will melt all the coil packs, engine harness, rocker covers paint etc etc etc
By far the best build on UA-cam right now! Absolutely love it. Any chance of long stacks coming thorough the hood into a box? Like the hoonicorn maybe?
Cheers. I hate things protruding through the bonnet. On a lot of my cars with big engine swaps I've gone to massive lenghts to keep the bonnet standard, or extremely subtle.
Amazing, normally I couldn't care less about a BMW but I love this. Another way to do the airbox, if you haven't built it yet is if you have it fees from the cowl like how we have some NASCAR engines feeding from the cowl. Good source of cold/ambient air temps, and it's even a high pressure zone when traveling at speed.
Absolute work of art, so excited to hear it start, wonder if there's a sound difference.... Maybe ceramic coating, heat installation and heat tape would help.
