93' Miata stolen and flipped build thread
#3474
I'm not looking to burn Abe at the proverbial stake, though, seeing as I have a new manifold an solution in the works, and I didn't spend money on the ARTech manifold either.
Just seems like someone somewhere did something, seeing as Abe probably would have started over with a new flange rather then doing filler?

That keeps/helps it not warp during production, but doesn't change what hornetball said, to check for warping after repeated heat cycles. Though if I remember correctly you are using 1/2 inch flanges which also definitely helps.

Yeah, mine leaks horribly. It doesn't help that I've had it sanded multiple times and now it's pretty thin in the middle. But it's finally machined on both sides as well as the turbo with inconel studs. It's not coming apart any time soon.

$500 for this Miata...I think I'm getting badly influenced by Ed and his car buying spree to be considering this....
