equal length tubular manifold material
What type of materials are you guys using to fab up a equal length manifold? It seems like ppl have different opinion on what type. If you have done this give me some advice or suggestion to what you think seems appropriate for this type of setup. I work at a industrial plant and probably get some for free with different size and shape pipings 
So from what I've read 304 or 321. This setup is gonna be for my h22. Planning on building it during winter and getting it ready by spring. Thanks.

Re:equal length tubular manifold material
I'm using schedule 40 mild steel
IMO, if you pick a material, either mild steel or stainless, try to keep the flange material the same as the pipe material. What I mean is make sure you get stainless flanges if your using stainless pipe.

and this is gonna sound dumb, but when you say 40 mild steel, what do you mean by that. 40gauge mild steel or....
(again, im serious)
