Message	Just make it thick enough. They sell fiberglass SCUBA tanks that hold 3,000 psi, so making an intake manifold hold 45 psi shouldn't be a problem. I know the SCUBA tanks are made differently, with long fibers, but then again it has to hold 3,000+ psi and not just 45 psi. And this place sells lots of stuff that you'd need: [ http://www.fibreglast.com ]
