Default Anyone have pics of mild/stainless manifolds?

I looked around but couldn't really find any. I was hoping to go full stainless, but since Wiertech doesn't do stainless flanges it looks like I'll be stuck with stainless pipe and mild flanges. Anyone got pics fresh and after being used? And is it going to be safe enough to run a manifold like that? Any particular precautions?

i wouldnt do stainless flanges becuase i have heard of then breaking studs out of heads because they expand too much and are too strong

Weir can help me with what? He doesn't do stainless =(. I'll buy the mild flanges fromo him, and the stainless pipe from ace, but I need to make sure the manifold I make isn't going to crack after a few thousand miles.

just do the whole thing out of mild, then you dont even have to worry about cracking because of dissimilar metals
