- Wed Aug 12, 2015 2:01 am #355262 Is anybody on this site familiar with or have personal experience with phenolic thermal intake gaskets and what type of phenolic to use for a DIY intake manifold gasket. Need something impervious to oil and gasoline? Mainly looking for people with personal experience on an exact type of phenolic or someone with harcore data on the types to use?

I love seeing custom fabrication and builds where there is no turning back.

The manifold took 6-7 total man hours and cost me less than $100 to build. Bends where only $5 a piece. The collector only cost $4 per foot of pipe. Used 4 foot of it. Sadly only needed 3" per 1ft. The flange I got from old DC headers purchased for $15. Made my own t3 flange etc etc. But I decided not to go with the mini Ram. I mad ram horn for $150. Spools my gt3071r at 2.5k rpms and 7psi by 2.9k in 4th. 7psi at 3.1k in third and this is on a new 2.25" exhaust. Very great spool but mines was a true equal length. +/- 0.50". Even some big name turbo manifold manuf. Aren't true equal lengths. Their 2+3 runners are about 3" longer than 1+4

You make a mid engine RWD swap look easy but I'm sure you know what you're doing.
