erich Posted April 23, 2007 Report Posted April 23, 2007 I got in a 90 TGP and i was dismantling it before it got crushed. it has a rebuilt crossover. Someone had also made a new heat shielf of a piece of exhaust pipe cut in 1/2. I do not know who did it..but it might be like the ones Jeff made. The welds are decent and have held on the car it was on. The TGP was black with tan cloth. When i get some time i will open the ECU cover and check if its a stock MEMCAL. Quote
GOT2B GM Posted April 23, 2007 Report Posted April 23, 2007 Jeff's had nicer looking welds, looked more like TIG welds. That looks like inexperienced MIG welds. Quote
erich Posted April 23, 2007 Author Report Posted April 23, 2007 ok, but it must have been on the car for a while and it held...no cracks. It is MIG welded. So jeff's are TIG? Quote
Addicted To Boost Posted April 23, 2007 Report Posted April 23, 2007 A Jeff M crossover should have flex joints and welds like these: This is my x-over btw... I got bored one day lol Quote
TGP5sp90 Posted April 23, 2007 Report Posted April 23, 2007 That might be worth alot of money if it is a jeff M pipe, cause it might be one of his first one's ever built. Quote
kuntzie Posted April 24, 2007 Report Posted April 24, 2007 dear god i think i could do a better job then the workmanship on that x-over Quote
Dark Ride Posted April 24, 2007 Report Posted April 24, 2007 That might be worth alot of money if it is a jeff M pipe, cause it might be one of his first one's ever built. what could possibly make that pipe worth much, it looks like hell and probably flows like shit too Nick, what did you use to coat your X-over, it looks nice! Is that Kenny's Pipe? Quote

Is that Kenny's Pipe? That's a Jeff M pipe, as he said, and I think he used 1200* silver paint w/ ceramic (I can't remember the brand but it's the same stuff I've been using.. d'oh.) Quote

Is that Kenny's Pipe? I'd say its worth something for not leaking for one. Wouldn't the cast manifolds account for the biggest problem in flowing. Quote
kuntzie Posted April 24, 2007 Report Posted April 24, 2007 well jeff m's early pipes had no flex bellows at all FWIW. Quote
GOT2B GM Posted April 24, 2007 Report Posted April 24, 2007 yeah, the ones that cracked 3/4s of the way around the turbo flange. Quote
TGPilot Posted April 24, 2007 Report Posted April 24, 2007 Is that Kenny's Pipe? Are you friggin serious??? I farm out my welding because I know I am not very good. But even if I did that myself it would have looked better! Quote

Addicted To Boost Posted April 24, 2007 Report Posted April 24, 2007 Yeah I have a Jeff M. x-over.

That is correct, Gutless. Quote
