Wondering if any are around, and how cheap I can find one ;)

Considering swapping the BOS out for the cast in my project due to exhaust routing issues.
Might also be interested in the DP...

I have one not sure how crack free it is though.

As in, its cracked, or you suspect it is? Were they prone to it? Actually, wasn't there a version to address cracking, a 2 piece unit?

I think you might be thinking of the old 20vt manifolds.

I might have one, I surely did, but i may have scrapped it thinking no one would ever want it. I will check.

Nope, I dont have mine anymore by the looks of it. I must have sent it to china to be turned into some harbor freight tools.

bummer!
thanks for looking - local would have been perfect.
I still want to chew Rathes out for crushing the good stuff!

Can you give me an idea of the shape they are in, and what you want for one?
Thanks!

There is one listed on Audifans, but the guys pricing is border line crazy.

No cracks but could use a bead blasting if you really want to clean them up. I'm out of town but will post a pic and think about a price when I get home on Friday.
