Gull wing manifold mold
 
Saw this on E-Bay, Gull Wing intake manifold mold. since these manifolds are NLA, new one`s can be produced.

A pricy little bugger

How does anyone know it's true? That would be a VERY pricy gamble. Besides, how hard would it be to make one using CAD and CMC nowadays?

It would be hard to reproduce a cast part with a cnc mill since it wouldnt look cast.

plus all the welding and maching can add up
