Just saying they were only 100 when they were made by the other guy you bought the design off of..i was ready for a price like that.. tell me if i am wrong
I know several people with CNC's that can make these maybe some competition will bring the price back to reality, I have many stock manifolds to copy also have "the other guys" I bought for my Pilot as well as a Mossbarger manifold to copy, their are many options for other 2 strokes aftermarket manifolds being built
https://www.google.com/search?q=ATC250r ... VmSOQhM%3A maybe the same can be done with a FL350 and Pilot ??
On a side note: For the Pilot a 79 CR250 manifold can me used for aftermarket carbs (39mm fits nice)
http://www.pilotodyssey.com/BTmanifold.htm never tried one on a FL350.
Anybody motivated with basic cad skills OR NOT could draw up a manifold I bet you could get guys to bid against each other on small batches at one of the many CNC sites heck you might even find a few who will draw it up for you
https://www.google.com/search?q=cnc+par ... cnc+forums I have seen chatter all over the internet over the years where guys stay late and use their employers CNC for side projects ('Government Jobs') or you can shell out the 200 bux and devote your time to drinking beer fantasy football NASCAR etc. ....
MOST IMPORTANTLY and what prompted me to reply to this thread in the first place... a USED manifold will probably be really hard which is like mounting the carb solid to the Engine, not having isolation can cause the fuel to foam in the carb and the Engine to suck air, upset the float level cause fuel delivery problems, not a good idea either way.
