They sent me more parts 
Thanks for GEM for the vacuum manifold and overbored OEM head gasket. Thanks to Earl for the PWR radiator.

I cant believe people are actualy paying money for a piece of ****** aluminum with threaded holes in it. You only paying for the eagle and the GE ingraved into it.
Nice PWR stuff. Im getting ready to buy my second PWR intercooler and a radiator sometime in the future.

Re: GEM did it again ... (93LSivic)
I won't comment on whether or not it's worth $30, but look at it this way - at least it does something!
I bet the people that make the retarded winshield squirter and valvestem cap lights make more money on that crap, and they're useless (and gay!).

Re: GEM did it again ... (PseudoSilvia)
I'd say its worth $30. It's clean and if you dont have a machine shop in your back yard what the hell else are you going to do? You can always tee a bunch of stuff off, and it will work but sometimes it just doesnt look right and its hard to trouble shoot problems.

Build your ideal flow system, starting with these manifolds. Just thread in the fittings you want to use for customized multiple connections to one source. Use plugs (sold separately) to close off outlets not in use. Manifolds have two inlets, one at each end, and two mounting holes. Connections are NPT female (except where noted). BSPP— British Standard Pipe Parallel Thread. BSPT— British Standard Pipe Tapered Thread.
Aluminum— Aluminum alloy 6061 offers high corrosion resistance and protection from contaminants. Withstands working pressures to 3000 psi hydraulic, 1000 psi air. NPT models have a black anodized finish; BSPP and BSPT models have a plain aluminum finish. Temperature range is —10° to +200° F.

nice find. what would be a good size to get to run the brake booster line to? 1/4,3/8/ or 1/2. the outlets on the 1/2 one seem kind of large for vac lines to bov,etc.

I ordered the 1/4in-1/8out. Should be here monday or tuesday. I'll see what it looks like when it comes. My total for a 2 inlet/6 outlet manifold, 1 1/4 plug, and 5 1/8 plugs was like $17 before shipping. The aluminum NPT manifolds come anodized black too, w00t

I'll probably use the inlets on the ends of the manifold and run it inline with the brake booster.
