Whoa... wait a minute... what is the tensile strength of the material?
Real wrenches are made from forged high strength steel.
I did the print manifold trick years ago Brian.
I guess you missed out.
It is easier to do a p-port as it fits all years (unlike a cast manifold) and
yields 50 HP more.

I though it was interesting, certainly the process is not mature enough to trust
to make a real manifold. Sometime in the future, perhaps.
I just read some literature put out by magnacor, it appears that using a braid
over the spark plug leads and then grounding them might not be the best idea in
the world. I just recieved the materials to make 4 leads using their EMI
suppressing leads in the mail yesterday. I also borrowed a prop to use on the
ground to get my RPMs up into the problem range for testing. Keep your fingers
crossed.

The process is fine for manifold casting patterns but probably not for highly
stressed mechanical parts.
