e-bay
for the last month but have not found the manifold I am looking for.  I

try the parts trader.

I love the one in the picture from GURU.  It will be more likely to work
than eve  I found their web site but the manifold is not listed.  I will
try
to give them a call.

Thanks for the help.

Hi all,  I am in need of a cast iron HKS exhaust manifold to
complete my
TO4
installation.  I need the internal waste-gate type, but HKS is
out of
stock
and does not plan any runs in the near future.  Does anyone
have one they
are willing to sell?  Ernesto?  Don't you have one sitting
around?

Sorry none for sale.  I have two HKS manifolds: One with a race
gate and the
other has no provision for a waste gate.  I'm going to use the
one without a
gate.  Try searching ebay or "The Parts Trader" on the web for
a manifold.
Another way is to make one out of  a RB flange, TO-4 flange and
some square
tubing.  I mocked one up and came up with a very compact design.

Also Dave I saw this Aussie T04 manifold at Seven Stock by Guru
racing.
First pic.

Second & third pics are local Rotech Nelson Wang TO4 tube manifolds.

Jap Performance in Sydney also has a nice custom cast iron TO4 manifold.

Saw it when I was over there.

Probably it is old news, but just to make sure:

Check this 13B: http://personal.riverusers.com/~yawpower/ac13bt.html

Some things may be outdated, but others I never heard of on ACRE, like oil
passage modifications.......
