well I posted this question on the old forums and unfortunently never got back to check it out before the transfer. I even got 2 pms that I can't read now so I'll really sorry but I'm gonna have to ask again.

Which is best stainless or cast? I'm planning on the stainless from importshark.com, but if there are benfeits to cast I'd like to know!! laugh.gif

thanks alot, again

He's right. Stainless have the tendency to crack easier, cast are MUCH stronger, but hold more heat in. Cast are heavier, Stainless are lighter, cast are ugly, stainless are pretty.

Default Re: hoods

thats the same stuff the gorilla manifolds were made out of...

gorilla manifolds were EXPENSIVE!

The stainless steel ssbullshit ones are weak.. ive held one..

The champion one seems beefy but are the ugliest next to the alpine one.

I would check out what speed factor has to offer, especially considering the high quality...
