cost me about $40 to have it welded...but thats because I dont know anyone who can weld aluminum...otherwise it would be cheaper not having to pay a shop's prices, I did the cutting and tapping myself though

 

from the opening where the tbody bolts up how far back did you go when you cut?
and i have to pay shop prices so 40 good enough.

 

anyone use an Indy?

 

i heard for a 1st gen its a pain in the A** to get it to work. to me there too much money when you can just modify a stock one.

 

did you hear what part was a pain because it looks like a very doable job, also i dont see much cost to it other than the weld, ifailed to mention above im doing the pnp. so no cost there eccept sanding wheels

 

im not sure i was never into the indy manifold, neons.org has alot of info on it though

 

the deal with the indy was bad quality control...all the runners have to be port matched...thats how far off the quality control on some/most of them were, otherwise I'd say its a pretty good manifold...as for how far back I cut it...I cut it just after the 90 myself, cut it with as much room as possible for them to get behind it and weld the flange(which you will have to cutt off as well) back on

 

yes ive looked on how to cut it and where i just wanted a comparison, your idea sounded just like mine.
