LoveFab Cast Stainless manifolds?
Yes thats correct. LoveFab fabrications will have stainless steel Equal Length CAST manifolds available in 6-8 weeks.
they will feature:
Interchangeable WG flanges
T3/T4 turbo compatibility
AC compatible
Eventual B,D,H,F series engines, but B series for now...
MSRP will be around $500
Just thought Id let you all know whats to come

Re: LoveFab Cast Stainless manifolds? (SuperDuperEG)
Similar, but not as long of runners because of cast limitations. But, they will be equal length

no, but this will be better because its stainless cast, and WG flanges are interchangeable.

Re: LoveFab Cast Stainless manifolds? (Tinker219)
Is this manifold made for the compressor to be on the driver side or passenger side? I'll be in the market REAL soon for manifolds with A/C compatibilty.

Re: LoveFab Cast Stainless manifolds? (evoeone)
cast is the ultimate way to make anything that deals with high-heat applications. No matter what way you look at it, a weld is a weak point. Granted, if welded well, it will last for years. But, cast is still best. Why do OEM manufacturers use cast on anything that they can? Because its very durable.
A proper Stainless cast manifold will last pretty much longer than any car will, and itll look good while doing it.

Re: LoveFab Cast Stainless manifolds? (Tinker219)
i hear ya on the OEM manufacturers using it...... so you're saying this will outlast a full race(ffgeoff) or one of your "equal length style" mani's? i just thought that people here like the tubular ones better, anyways, good luck,

I belive OEM Manufacturers Use Cast on anything they can For the Fact Once they Build a Mold They Can Mass Produce The item Cheaper and more Easier!
No doubt Cast Manifolds are Way to go for Trouble Free Fun, Thats Why I have one!

I would have to say, yes I do think the manifold will last longer. Because there are no welds, there is less chance for error.
For those who still want the crazy "welded" tubular manifolds, Im still producing those for prototypes, one-offs, etc. Im going the "cast" route because it seems to be the best way to go for the average user who wants awesome gains, great driveability, great looks, and even greater durability.
