318 draw through build

This exhaust setup does look confusing... But the left bank and the right bank are joined and all exhaust gases exit via the 2 center left exhaust pipes through the turbo.
At first glance it does look like it would be restrictive but no more so than going through the turbo.
Bakerlite has Bohica2xo helping him and from what I've read of Bohica's posts, he is one clever guy.

the draw through on the intake makes sense to me

what baffles me is the the left and right join together at the bottom, but I only see about a 1 inch passage from the rear to the center ports and front one doesn't join; and has to blow into back pipe which in the end goes through that 1 inch opening

they should be like a double shorty header and exit bottom and top, bottom should cross to other side and top enters the turbo, what I see will not allow engine to run let alone build boost
