340 Manifolds, Reproduction, Any interest?
Already ahead of you, just printed out half dozen pairs in silver, only took 3 ink cartridges so I figure $35/pr ought to cover it. BTW does anybody know what CNC means, I cant find it in the thread search.....
seems like I get the same reaction each time I inquire about what I think would be a helpful part, like a header for 64-66 V8 or a dropped center link for same....yes, I know there are other manufactures doing it but $250 for center link or $700/pr for manifolds seems out of my budget and I would assume others as well. Rather than actual helpful answers like I wouldnt pay $20 for them or hell yea, I want 4, I get a lesson in something I have done for 20 years, three thread hi jacks and maybe one or two real answers (thanks btw!!) and a load of bullshit about how I dont know what I am talking about. I didnt ask if anybody thought I could produce a part or how to do it, I just asked if anybody would consider buying aftermarket 340 manifolds.
I have access to a bank of 10 cnc mills, waterjet table cnc bender etc... that I dont have to pay much for time. I also have somebody that will trade me cad time for parts/wrenching and can get **** programmed for dirt cheap. I also have a friend thats a Mech Eng that could run the cad stuff for structural integrity, I can do this and yea it might end up being $250 ea but it would still be american made **** that actually fits.
We have been selling our jeep swap headers for 15 years. They are $475 so it can be done, is it worth it to me to gamble on selling 500 pr...maybe not.
