ehaust maifold flange
ehaust maifold flange
Doea anyone know where i can get an ehaust flange cut, the engine side for an e15t??? i could take a manifold to a metal fab place but most of the cost is incurred with the cad drawings. if someone has had one cut somewhere before maybe the still got the program, i could cad it myself but i doubt they'll take my program as its cutting thier lunch abit. i wouldnt like it.
cheers

There are free programs available. Most CNC places expect you to bring your CAD, because they don't know what you want. They then convert it to CAM which drives the machine. A good way of cheating it to scan the manifold face (most copiers can also scan nowa-ays) then load that image into the CAD software and trace it, then scale it from two main dimensions. Quite simple.
I can CAD, if you can send me a scan of the manifold. Also by way of recomendation, I know a guy down Cranbourne way - Rob Black Engineering - that would be able to cut it for you. But there are HEAPS of places nowadays.

shit you may as well take over the project. lol. yeah if you dont mind mate, im in no rush i've got a spare head lying aroound so wanna do my own manifold rather than what i've done. i'll send you a copy of the manifold. i may struggle to not send a photocopy of my ass though. always tempting while photocopying

EVERY flange I have had done on a profile cutter has been done this simple way.
You can take a tracing, use a manifold gasket (if in one piece) Or in my case, you can even tap out with a ballpein hammer an accurate copy using some thin cardboard. Just the same as making custom gaskets.
How do you think I had my VG30det flanges cut?
Hell, just get some thin paper, tape it down so it cant mover and rub you dirty fingers to make a faithful copy... dont you have ANY imagination at all?????
The machine shop will simply scan this and out the other end pops your flange in any thinckness you specify.
Id feel embarrassed rocking up with some funky cad file and have the guys laugh at me for taking such a high road for such a brain dead task...... sheesh.
