Default Where to find Aluminum flanges for cylinder heads

Where can you buy aluminum flanges for LS1 based cylinder heads? We're going to fab up a sheetmetal intake in-house and see how it work with an adjustable runner.

We can make them, Just tell me how many. We can make them to fit any head. We can make them in any shape or form.

I can make them on my CNC too but two thumbs up for this guy, I'm sure he already has a program. I have aluminum in stock too for your application and if you decide you want it I can deliver it to ET heads.

Can you guys do them for the L-92 heads? If so how much for a pair?

yes we can make them for the l92 as well. I will figure out material cost today and respond to this. What thickness are you guys looking for. I have been using 5/8 for certain reasons. 1/2 would probably work just as well. It is just harder to fit the bolt holes in without getting thin.

I'm just looking for a Direct port manifold setup and all I really need are the flanges cut. Whatever you think will work. This manifold won't see boost so I think 1/2" should definitely be sufficient. I will also try building my own but if you guys can provide something for a decent price I'll jump on it.
