Do a search for stainless butt weld then go to the catalog page. all the fittings are in the same section.

Re:hmt peeps, where you get your hm supplies?
 

Just curious, why stainless, why not carbon steel. Is it better able to hold the heat? The regular steel is cheaper, thats why I asked.

ss is the best to use it handles heat better and allows you to use thinner pipies.
you guys are realy worried about nothing with the 10 guage lots of manifolds are made form alot thinner stuff
look at jeffs raqce manifold its thinner than schedule 10

in fact 10 is probly a bit to thick but is much cheaper than the real thin ss that is suposed to be used. :-\

LOL, isn't that the truth.

Fast and Furious doesn't like anyone with the skills to realize $1200 for one of his manifolds is a ---- in the ass.

Man, Geoff is an ass. Your smoking some serious crack if you think $1200 is worth it because he has a profesional welder put together $150 worth of parts. You have been listening to his crap for too long.

What business secret is he trying to protect?

Re:hmt peeps, where you get your hm supplies?
 

Well, maybe there isn't any secret to why his manifold is better than others. However, I spoke to him several times and he's a pretty cool guy. Let him do his thing and you do yours. Maybe one day that i practice on my manifold enough, i'll make a better manifold than him :P
