The B17 has a steam channel that connects the exhaust from all three cylinders You can get eith a CI or gunmetal casting, but i was wondering what drawbacks ( rusting?) there would be if i fabricated it from mild steel , apert rom a cost saving ( plus i am enjoying drawing out all the bits...lol

How about fabricating it in brass, no rusting problems, silver solders beautifully.

If it is for exhaust, the cylinder oil will prevent rust well enough. Another way to look at it - which will last longer, you or the manifold? Martin
