Default Manifolds for 100 shipped?

I'm thinking about cranking out some manifold for dseries and more than likely bseries later on, just wondering if anybody would be interested.

they'll be made out of 3/8" mild steel for the flanges and mild steel bends/tees for 100 shipped. tig welded.

I've already made a few flanges, trying to get the bolt pattern down, but they'll go for 20 shipped.

Would anybody buy these things at these prices?

also if anyone knows where I can find the dimensions for a t3 flange, i'd appreciate it.

pics will be here by the end of the week.

you say you're making flanges?

whats your process for this. it cant really be said on whether or not people would buy them without seeing pictures of your work.

right now I'm using a drill press and torch, using a gasket as a template, once I get a solid steel template ready I'll be using a tracing torch on the exhaust holes.

I know pics are needed, I'll have them by the end of this week. Just seeing if the price sounds about right.

And yes, my welds are solid.

the flanges are still rectangular , as in not tapered on the sides like the gasket is.

If you bought 25 flanges or so, you could probably get a shop to cut them for you, for not that much money.

cool, I'm probably going to do a run of 5-10 or so flanges then make a couple manifolds to see how they sell.
