well i did the flanges at work out of scrape material so that was free and the pipe and fittings i think were around 100$. I did not take any pics of the inside but if you line the fittings up and do a really good job on coping the pipe its really smooth i did have to take a die grinder to make every thing smooth on some spots on the inside.

Did you had to fill a pretty large gap on the 12 valve shaped port? I'm building a manifold also but my such 40 fittings just barely cover, and there will have to be some filling done. I'll get a picture this weekend of what I'm trying to describe.

I like your external gate setup, it's quite different from the normal design!

Do you think sch 10 might be too light? Maybe sch 40 would be better?

i think sch 10 is good i have not had any problems but im on a stock engine nothing built and im sure i dont see the egts that the heavily fueled trucks do.
i might start making them just the flanges are the hard thing getting done with us slammed at work kinda hard to slip them in haha wish i was on nights

You might have to wait awhile since I forgot to take pictures while I was home this weekend.

Back to my question though, did you have to fill some sizable gaps? I'm probably going to end up doing that and smoothing the transition out.
