Default Any idea who made this manifold?

I bought this from a friend, with a 3" nuekin downpipe. He said he thought the manifold was made by lovefab but it their website didn't have anything similar. Well, enough talk, here are the photos. Oh, and its been sitting around their shop for awhile.

def. NOT full-race. love fab's welds are usually like 4" wide so i dont think its theirs either. welds look different than the AFI stuff i have seen. sorta looks like a RLD? (i think thats the abbreviation) manifold

The wider fill pass would lead me towards AFI or even LoveFab which was stated already. If you want, post these pics up in the Welding/Fab forum...someone with a more keen eye might be able to tell you...

Not lovefab because cody uses CNC

the flange design and material/cut tells me its an older AFI manifold

No, they dont put such a wide fill pass on any of their manifolds.

Phil, nice catch on the flange. That's what i was saying in my earlier post about those with a keen eye for manufacturing detail

It's one of those days you would wish that the respective fabricator of this manifold would leave a logo or emblem...lol Looks like an old Neukin manifold to me...

Doesn't look like AFI to me. Maybe if it's super old, but I still doubt it. I'm basing this on the fact that they've been porting/cleaning up the inside of their collectors for the past 3+ years and that one looks untouched - although it isn't perfectly clear from the picture.
