Jarrett,
I’m certainly interested in a manifold. I recall the mistral one going for quite a lot. Obviously the more you can sell, the less
you have to ask for them.
What sort of investment is required to produce say ten units? I’m thinking 5-700 dollars(sales price), but then again, I like a bargain.
Also it depends on how much profit you feel you need to make.
I hope I haven’t insulted you. But I have no clue as to how much goes into cooking up one of these.
I have a Renesis if you’re looking for a test bed.

Subject: [FlyRotary] Re: Mistral Intake Documentation?
So it's possible that I've missed the question [I'm a bit behind on my emails] but is there a market for a Mistral type intake manifold system? I'm in the process of finalizing a casting
furnace and foundry setup and have been looking at various projects in and around rotary engines. Intake manifolds have been at the top of the list. I own the needed CNC equipment to build the molds and patterns for a project of this level, it's always just
been a issue of time to dedicate to the project.
Recently I was given an opportunity to have more time to do on projects like this [stop working two jobs and have multiple days off to do stuff like this with a reasonably flexible schedule]
I'm curious as to the demand for a reasonably priced manifold? [Also, in the end customers mind, what would be 'reasonably priced'?]
Best Regards
