Thanks frayz,tbho as good as it looks its crazy how much time go's into making a rough cast Ali manifold into a reversed smooth example you see now!
This build chews up time for fun with what seems like little progress.

All builds chew up time for fun mate if you make a decent job of it.
I used to spend hours on mine and the. Look back and think I'd done nothing.
Any idiot can slap a car together. It will be worth it in the long run.

Like you say though,worth it in the end.....hopefully!

That magnesium looks good, but I'm toying with a crinkle black - I've got some rocker covers to paint up to match too. Then some powder coating for FMIC pipes, inlet and catch can all broken up with red hoses
Need to get some black and gunmetal plastidip too to do some interior bits

Sounds good Jon,to be fair black is just subtle and suits most applications especially a dark coloured car.
