$2000 will be each as they will still take several days to make each as it's a pretty labour intensive job

it would improve price but by the time you pay for the program the huge piece of alloy etc plus the job you could easy spend $10,000 and no manifold is worth that no matter how good it goes or looks |

dude sounds like it's way out of your budget, the block of alloy alone in t5 would cost a easy couple of grand

So what is a cheapish way to copy a Boss intake manifold, would you be able to get them made under $1ooo. |

possibly but would need to be doing at least 5 units, the alloy you've probably looked at is extrusion which is cheap and cannot be cnc machined let anlone and decent form of machining

Getting custom upper's made as our's dont have the provisions needed for the engines, all i need to supply at this stage is the lower's. How will you make these, how close will they be to the original's. |

Looking good Steve, looks like you got the top-class facilities that not a lot of shops have
Will the dyno area be in it's own controlled room with exhaust fans etc, as well having an engine dyno room? |
