[s-cars] RS2 Manifold from E-Bay

[brian bilotti]

James,

I would would be VERY skeptical. Are those ridges on
the flange/motor side? I just pulled an RS2 mani off
for umpteenth time and this time it only has 10k on
it. All other times varied between 10k-30k. EVERY time
it needed/needs to get planed flat again. They tend to
bow out between 20-40 thousanths at #1 and 5. It's a
gradual bow that starts at #2 and 4. 

So if an actual RS2 mani does this, I wonder what a
replica would do? 

Just casting my $.02 woth into the pond...
