Default real full race manifold?

thinking about buying this guys turbo manifold that he said was full race. There are no marking or logo on it that say full race. is it maybe an early series one or just a good rep. from the looks of it, its looks good quality just wonderin if I should pay full race price if it isn't their product.

generally real race parts dont say full race on them or need to brag

most of FRs manifolds have their name/logo on the head flange... at least the later ones that were robotically welded... how else would you know who made it?

like I said without pics we can't help you... if it's an earlier manifold then the welds should give it away but your real best bet is to email full race with photos of the manifold, only they will know for sure

I had a full race manifold from the early days without a company logo but I do recall there was either a initial and/or a identification number of some sort engraved. Either it is a really old manifold or it's a fake of some kind. Good luck.

you sound like me. I make as much as I can and try to avoid buying things I can make from scratch or using existing parts and modifying them to work (unless the price is too good to ignore) plus I do all of the work on my cars on my own

I applaud you sir, people like you and me are a dying breed in this hobby.

to the OP, again, POST PICS... that's the only way we can help tell you what it is. if you don't know how to post them, email them to me and I'll do it

Full-Race makes parts for everything if you ask them. Top-notch work as well. Worth the money many times over.

I fabricate my own stuff, so I really dont have a need for most aftermarket parts, but I appreciate the tip
