This is what im wondering about, not so much the flanges as I can get those CnC'd but the piping is not an easy find!

well i need my crank polished first, then just putting in low comp, pistons, i think eagle rods, and then put the head back on, do valve lash, and timing belt. not a whole lot to do, i can do the intake and exhaust manifolds, then i might need u to tune

most performance muffler shops will sell kits of pre bent pipe. I was going to build a turbo manifold for my mini, and Master Performance in Brampton said that they can sell me a box/kit of different degree mandrel bent pipe.
