Anybody know of a company who makes reasonably priced custom exhaust manifolds?
I have a Ford crossflow engine in a Chevette and it desparately needs a custom manifold made to fit the car.
It only needs to be mild steel as it will be covered by exhaust wrap and only does low mileage. (My current manifold has lasted 10 years!)
I am in East Herts / West Essex area, but have a trailer so I can move the car.
Thanks

Been around for years - never used him myself but understand he's the guy for anything to do with custom exhausts / manifolds.

Have you tried a local Blacksmiths? A little firm that does bespoke fabrication? I used to use a Blacksmiths years back who could make anything, just take a drawing in with some dimensions and it would be ready in days. Just a thought.

I second that - my dad has used him in the past and all of his trade mates rave about the fella. That is of course providing he is still there.. :S

Porsche 924 - gone Citroen Saxo VTR - not very retro but I loved it - now gone... MK4 Golf GTi 1.8T - gone but hardly remembered... Mini Cooper S R53 - gone BMW 125d Coupe - gone (mostly sideways)
Ford Focus RS Mk1 - hello low MPGs and "wanna race me" at every set of lights... 1973 BMW 2002 - Twin 40's, 284 Cam, Revolutions, E21 Recaros + more Porsche Cayman 987 3.4S - here and due to cost me more money than I have
