twistex Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 I have a header someone gave me a while back! its new and well just wont fit in the car I have my 3.2 l motor in. I wanted to built a custom header because I want to stay away from the " boat anchor " I can't seem to source and l series flanges, I have looked on good and this forum with no luck. I have a place to source collectors and material to make the runners but no flanges. Can someone please point me into the right direction on obtaining a flange. If not I will end up having to mod the header I have currently. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoustonZ Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 I had 30 cnc cut mild steel flanges made about 6 months ago. All of them were sold to forum guys. Maybe someone here would like to sell theirs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

locodrftr Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 take your header or gasket to a machine shop and ask them to duplicate the flange and see how much it is, i plan on doing this to make my header except i'll be doing it in stainless, and taking it to a guy with a water jet..at least thats what i was thinking...
