hi all, does anybody know here i can get a steel inlet flange for a pinto from? as well what thickness woull be good, it is to make a inlet manifold, i have any alu one but it is not to good, but doing the job, just want a back up.

as well a spare pinto head, in essex area they do not want, so i can use it as a heat sink.

thanks

I used an angle grinder and holesaw to cut one out of a piece of 10mm steel plate I had kicking about. It was a mornings work!

As above - locost way is make yourself using gasket as a guide.

Not sure if the inlet holes vary though. (diameter). id head is modified it makes sense to make sure inlet flange and head match up.
