What is the point of doing this. Wouldn't air flow still be limited by the original single carb manifold?

It was a common thing to do in the 40s 50s, it wouldn't be ideal but if you used the factory single plane manifold it might work well, I copied an original.

I made a faux sawn off shotgun for a friends Krav Maga class this weekend.

It's a piece of framing timber and some electrical conduit, I'm pleased with how it turned out.gun.jpg.a6eda803b82f1dacfa3eb6eb64f7a6de.jpg

Mean. You are just testing break load? so no computer attached for seeing how it broke? My parents are buying a load tester at the moment, I think its 5 ton tension and compression. Has computer attached for displaying failure modes etc which should be pretty cool.

@peteretepJust saves peak load for destruction testing i basically only do destructive testing with it as an indication only excercise. It is calibrated for load testing though.

Have a 200t bed for anything else that needs to be destructed which does printouts graphs and data, has thick steel guards over it to capture any shrapnel its a cringeworthy excercise watching the graph on that puppy! You know whats coming but you still jump.

Was trying to get it to mill tow different depths, but it think I got the layers backwards so it cut over everything the same.
