M50 Aluminum Intake Manifold Flanges

[mattdk318i]

well, Im wanting to make my own intake mani now that i have MS. Buuuut I have exhausted my search trying to find these flanges.

Ive checked all posts that included these flanges and no one seems to have or make them anymore. I found some overseas but they dont have o-ring machined grooves.


Anyone?

you likely have to cast or otherwise make some sort of adapter plate

I don't get it. What exactly are you trying to do? fab your own aluminum intake manifold for an M50?

^ most likely. If i had seen this before the last brodeo i could have helped you out with this but now our shop is in 100% production which means i cant do side projects

cut the plastic flange off a junkyard manifold and take it to a machine shop?

[der affe]

This^ buy aluminum in whatever thickness you want and take it to a shop and have it water jet cut or lazer cut. Having it machined would be expensive because of machine run time.

i sent the guy above a pm as mentioned above. he responded that he doesn't make any flanges at this time nor does he have any for sale.....

[flyboyx]

Cast? Adapter plate? WTF are you talking about?



Flanges like that are really simple to make. You'd either need to give a shop a .dxf from a model you've made, give them details (dimensions) of what you want, or give them something that they can measure and reproduce in AL. They can laser that shit really easily.
