Who has a CNC mill or can cut me an aluminum NB intake flange?
I'm gonna go for phorum greatness and do some stupid **** with my NB intake manifold.

PM humming, he has gotten some stuff water jetted before.
Also call around your local shops, I found someone who could do it real cheap, they were actually a masonry shop, but had a water jet.

How quickly do you need one? I posted in the other thread, but I am working on getting these digitized and available. I don't have a time frame yet as they were lower on my todo list, but I have asked my machinist about it.

I need to get a count of how many people would be interested in purchasing one of these awesome flanges? My machinist said he could do them, but I have to order a few to get it started. I am working on getting numbers right now. I don't have a ton of cash personally to hold stock of them, but if I can get enough interest I can get the first set made. Then the shop would be able to make more as needed.

Considering I have no real idea to base my estimate off since I have no experience purchasing custom water jetted pieces. I'd pay $100-$150 for something like that. I'd probably be saving cost going to a aftermarket intake manifold that fits a honda. I guess as long as I can swap to using a honda manifold under the cost completely of just paying someone to make me a custom intake manifold. If that makes sense.

Yeah I can tell you it probably won't be anywhere near that cheap.
Once I get details on pricing I will make a list of who all is interested and see if I can get enough people in. The shop I use is pretty good, I generally get a 3-4 week turn around when I am buying exhaust flanges in bulk.
