    Icengineworks Header Fabrication System

    139

    New at Trick-Tools is the complete exhaust header fabrication system from Icengineworks. This system streamlines the header building process and will take you from concept to completion of custom headers and turbo manifolds. The system includes modeling blocks, tube cutting jigs, and welding clamps.

    The modeling blocks simply snap together to form header primaries that can then be duplicated by cutting and welding commonly available prebent U-bends and J-bends. After the modeling process is completed the included cutting board and alignment blocks will assist in duplicating each section of plastic blocks in steel tubing. The included tack weld clamps make positioning the cut tubing for welding extremely easy! The clamps allow the fabricator to preview, adjust, and clock the pieces before they are tack-welded together. Time consuming weld and cut adjustments are avoided and headers can be more precisely assembled.
