Re: can anyone on here cut and machine aluminum

They would have a better idea than that top link. Price out the raw aluminum, paying someone to machine it and weld it. You are going to be near the price of just buying one, if not over. Any reputable manifold I have seen is way better than the one above. Square corners on the plenum are bad, there is no taper to the runners and arbitrarily put a taper on the plenum, just because. I am sure it out performed the stock one, but a good manifold would have out performed it and he must have at least $300 into that manifold. Both manifolds are critical to the car, I wouldn't skimp on either of them. Skimp on the exhaust or intake pipe.
