About this part
What it is and why it is made that way
A manifold brings several passages together in one body, and the fewer welds it has, the fewer places it can leak. Die casting forms the passages in the cavity in a single shot, and the port faces and mounting faces are machined afterwards so the joints actually seal.
- Internal passages formed by core pull in the die
- Port and mounting faces machined flat
- Pressure tested on request
- Supplied with material certificate and a dimensional report
