To keep it short, dont buy it. My reason being, I bought a turbo manifold, and a downpipe from them, for like 600 for both. They were both suposed to be a/c and p/s compatible, and neither is a/c compatible, and I had to cut and reweld the downpipe, because it was hitting my oil pan so bad, that i couldnt even bolt it up. I called them, and they said the best they could do for me, was have me send both back to them, and they would try to fix it, and they would cover shipping back to me. Sorry if I seem angry, I've had a bad day, as all of the above happened about an hour ago.:TD: :TD:

Wow, that sucks... You'd figure they would offer to send a new setup and you send yours back instead of them offering to fix yours which of course means more downtime.

I also forgot to mention that the 3" down pipe, was 2.5" in diameter.

theres something your not telling us.

james at bmc and jgfab is awesome.

i got a log mani that cracked over a year ago, im not going into full details but he hooked it up and i had 0 downtime.

he is very easy to work with.

they offered to fix your shit, why are you pissed? not everyones (CUSTOM) products are perfect everytime, but they wanted to fix it. not their fault you dont have time to send it back.. not everything can be fixed as fast as you snap your fingers.

stop bitching. if they offer to fix it and you decide to fix it yourself, they are off the hook 100%. and thats a fact

thats great that you had no down time, but i was going to have like another two weeks of down time if I sent my mani and dpipe back to them, and there was no lack of comunication, every time I called James he was not very helpful at all, and you can call it custom all you want, but if you make a manifold for a d-series, and you use a d-series motor as a test engine, which he told me they do, it should fit another d-series motor.
