Wanted: Stainless KV6 Manifolds

I'm looking for a set of stainless manifolds for the KV6.
Willing to also buy sports-cat but the manifolds are the important bit.
Any brand or bespoke considered; especially Janspeed!

Happy to collect or send a friend to do that for me.
Postage is an option but would rather exchange in person!

Would also appreciate if anyone sees a set on other sites; they hook a brother up with the details!

Cash/Paypal waiting.

I'm in South Lincolnshire.

Cheers!

You can buy them new still for a touch shy of £500

If push comes to shove, I will but I'd rather buy used for a few hundred less. It's not as of they go wrong after all.

problem is bud they are changing hands for £450 + at moment, your not going to get a set for £200.

My friend bought a set for £280 late last year. Crazy how that's changed.
I've only seen sets on Facebook but people have bidded £500 and from what I can see not actually followed through.
I was hoping that by looking out for the sports cat too I'd have something else to show my money's worth if I sink £450+ into.

you can buy a 100cpi cat for 80-100quid these days, not worth buying some old janspeed cat used.

I'm not even sure the new mani's are stainless??? maybe someone else knows better?

I made my own sports cat. It's very easy. Are there any good exhaust places nearby or even good sheet metal shops?

Yeah, there is a few this way. So get them to make the sports cat and just focus on the manifolds?

I'll find out for sure, but there is a guy I know (good friend) up in Birmingham who custom builds exhausts... he recently did a TF manifold back, so I wonder if he can do the KV6 manifolds as well....

I thought about going to someone to make a set. A few of my friends who have had/still use them complained of poor welding and that awful 90 degree bend. Not sure if you can fix all the issues but that would be a solution.
Cheers for that; it would be great!
