okay i better mention this quick or someone will think i haven't read any old posts, i have my answer isnt there. on to the issue...
i bought a cyclone manifold off a local guy for 40 bucks, brought it home to start cleaning it up and when i took it apart i found something interesting. before i bought it i didnt know exactly what was so special about them but now i know it's the flaps that block off 4 of the 8 runners until a set RPM. when i took mine apart, i discovered that the flaps were removed, bar and all, leaving all 8 runners open all the time.
what i need to know is if i can get the parts to reinstall the flaps, or if i can get just that section of the manifold, or if i'm entirely screwed as far as that goes and should just get another one if i want it functioning.
i was trying to figure out why someone would've removed them, but i'm sure they had no idea how to make them function and took them out for that reason.
any advice would be great on that.
