Could always get it made if you can't find one! They can take a template off the existing one on the car.

Hiya, i have at present no idea what the material costs would be.
As you can appreciate, thats a large proportion of the cost, then getting the various bends put on is another.
The welding aspect isnt particularly involved with only a couple of runs required *if* i can get the pipes bent in one go rather than having to stictch together sections.
Deffo easier to do it in large runs tho and quicker too.
Need to find someone with a pipe bender locally i can trust to do it.....crikey have i got to source a pipe bending machine next??

I would be interested in a 5-3-1 manifold, if I could tig, or if I even had a tig I would do it myself

I also have a manifold, and a 3-1 downpipe off the car, although the 1 part has been replaced due to rotten bits
