Hmm. The stock manifold doesn't have much in the way of gaps.

But it is stock and flows much worse. Part of greater flow is more heat hence the need of cracks.

Default Who makes it in Brasil? I did a lot of deals there in that industry

I may be able ot shed some light on the company/manufacturing process.


All in all, I've found their high end manufacturing facilities to be world class.


After all, the vette's rotors and calipers are made there

Default Need to register to peruse site.

Looks like a reseller and perhaps they do the manufacturing but I couldn't tell from work.



I'll check it out from home and post my thoughts

Default SPA as I mentioned if you go back and re-read owns it's foundry and forgery. Been in the game.....

15 years. I believe they use a around 4-6% SI and have a 2-3 elongation in the Ductile process they use.
