Message	I decided go with the PE1420's with GD split dps and since I'm doing everything else on my car that I can to help, I am interested in some manifold work. I've been talking to Russ about his (in the classifieds) for awhile, but his pics aren't really showing me what I need to see besides some shiney parts. I know Greg Dupree has been working on some, but who knows when they will be completed or what the price will be. There are the Pentroofs, but way too much $$$ for me. I like Mike Kojimas, but a post I saw said even these are over kill for Sport 650s. So what's the ideal way to go? What's the extrude hone thought process for stock manifolds? I'm basically kinda confused on what option would be the best way to go. Thoughts? Not ripping on Russ either. Sounds like a good/legit guy. He's been vert straight forward with me. Just trying to get all the options laid out in front of me.
