    I'm thinking mild steel at least for a starter set. Sence the ports are rectangle I wonder how I can address that?

          If it's an older LQ1, like what you said you were going to pick up. It should have more D shaped ports on the exhaust, the newer motors have the oval shaped exhaust. I think only the intake side is really a rectangle.

            Yeah, as far as shapes go, you are right. 96/97 are the oval shaped exhaust port years. 91-95 are "D" ports.

                I like the prices on that site. The only thing I didn't see was collectors. The motor is an early one because it sayes Twin Duel Cam. I guess I'll have to make my own flanges.
