The easiest way would probably be to order a intake/exhaust gasket (they are one piece for both) and cut it from that.

There are some flanges for sale on eBay. Not a bad price. All are steel.

Anyone know how to get ahold of the flange guy on Ebay (Aaron Aames)? I don't have an ebay account and want to ask him some Q's...

i bought flanges from the e-bay guy. His name is Aaron. I ordered three sets and he sent me three front flanges but no rears. When I told him i did not receive the full set, he claimed he had sent them and refused to make good. Be careful. I was not happy with him at all.

Funny, when I bought a set of intakes and a set of exhausts and asked what he'd charge for one more intake flange he sent me a full extra set of intakes at no charge. So I'm assuming you got Intakes. It was like a puzzle but after turning and flipping I figured them all out. Here are some pictures of mine and since only two of my six are placement sensitive I'll trade you for what you need. Aaron was fair and good to me. It would be easy to make a mistake with these. Did you order 3 sets or one set of 3 flanges? Beater FLANGES

No they were exhaust flanges. I was really surprised when he kept insisting he had sent them almost like I was trying to get something more than I had paid for. I don't know what else to say except he was anything but fair with me.

CNC DUDE can set You up with flanges. That's where I bought a set and they were right the first time.

Mdonohue, I'm sorry you had trouble with Aaron. Did you involve eBay? He won't want negative feedback. I hope you can get a fix. On the other hand I'll guarantee CNC DUDE or others on this site will treat you honestly and provide a quality product. And thank you for the warning. As I said before my deal went well. Beater

I did not involve ebay although I probably should have. I have been buying parts from various folks for a lot of years, including some of the folks who post here and have never had any trouble. And I generally don't expect any problems. It would have been better if Aaron had just made good on my order (i bought three sets because he was willing to make them up for me in 3/8 so I was trying to be fair with his efforts) just based on our conversation but that did not happen. I would have even pitched in for shipping and maybe the cost of the material just to close out the issue but no dice. So the end result is that I just won't buy from him or recommend him to anyone. That seems to be the best avenue for me. To much aggravation otherwise and to be honest, life is entirely too short.
