and no im not trying to advertise here just getting some opinions
we made a manifold and independent throttle boddies for a customer recently
and i just wanted to see what you guys thought about it

haha and i edited the first post good looking outI might have some things to play with, guess it's impossible to give a quote without seeing the part right? What would you need in order to make it? I only have AutoCAD but can create 3D solids with it...

ahh i see, you would like to get a quote?
and if so, if you have a 3D image of it that would be no problem

oh ya that would be fine, having an actual thing to go off of makes things even easier and less expensive (less programing time)
