I need a mild steel exhaust flange for a 086 head (LGO motor). I've emailed carcustoms and quad4rods both with no replies.
where is everyone getting theres?
thanks in advance.
i'm working on getting one and drawing it up on proEngineer to give to turbo tech right now. i just bought the software for my laptop, now i just need to get my hands on a manifold and draw it up.

You should be able to draw one up with just a manifold gasket, right? Those are only like $8 at every parts store ever.
AWESOME!
i talked to TTR, and they said they needed a drawing, but this is great news!
I think a manifold gasket should work.
I can make one! Let me know if you are interested because im getting a whole bunch of flanges cut soon! 2.2 intake and exhaust, throttle body flanges, and others!

dont use the manifold...the manifold is port matched..but the gasket is larger...if you make it the same size as the manifold ports the flange will end up being TOO SMALL if someone has a ported quad head..know what i mean?? make the flange match the exhaust gasket........
ps....i got mine from quad4rods.com
is the quad4rods.com flange stainless or mild steel? (i thought it was stainless)
um..not really sure..i know the starter pipes it comes with are mild steel....and the runners i had welded to it are mild and i didnt have any problems.....it migh be stainless. but it wasnt too shiney so i didnt think it was

Phil has the gasket and is drawing it up this week. Here's the deal...
he needs to make 5 LGO flanges in order for them to be $70 a piece, mild steel, 3/8" thick.
i need one, so now all we need is 4 more... who's interested?
Im almost done with this, should be done by tonight! That $70 was an estimate, but should be close to it! So lets get 5!!!!! Even 10 would be cheaper by $5! Do you like it?

I've waited 2-3 days before even making this post, and i still haven't gotten a reply.
I know they are both VERY reputable companies, i just assumed that they would want to get back to a customer a little faster than a week.
i know that i'm not buying a new set of pistons or anything like that, but it just makes sense that a business would want to get back to an interested customer asap, even if it's just for networking.
