Header flange

I am comparing prices of the header flanges. MazdaTrix is 28 plus whatever the shipping is, And eBay has them for 37 shipped. Anyone have them cheaper?

Who knows what MazdaTrix charges for shipping on these?

How cheap are you? Buy the $28 piece from mazdatrix, and buy some other crap on the website while you're at it. Get a sticker. Get a key chain. Whatever.

You're fighting $28, really?

I am planning to buy about 20 of them. So a few dollars adds up really quick when buying in larger quantities. It's nice to know the shipping charges before you purchase. So it's not $28. it's $28 + ? for shipping...

I called yesterday. They were closed and now it's the weekend, so they are closed. I need an answer asap.

Thanks for your help.

IIRC, Mazdatrix doesn't do shipping quotes...you don't find out till they've boxed it and sent it out.

It's just a guess, but I'd figure on about $30 shipping for 20 flanges.
They aren't that large and don't require much protective packaging, so the box should be relatively small.
Maybe figure $50 as a worst case scenario.

if you buy the more expensive flanges, they come machined so you can fit the pipe into the flange which is a nice feature

If you are going to buy 20, then draw them up in CAD and have them laser or water jet cut locally by a shop. There are likely many shops in Orlando who can perform this service.

+1... if they did a nice discount on multiple items, you can always have the parts made as individual rotor flanges too, so instead of 20 pieces, you make 40. when you do em separate, this lets you easily do 12A, 13B and 20B.

actually for $28 a pop, you should PM me, we have a box of flanges

tried that. Came out to be more expensive. Orlando is not an industrial area so things like this are priced higher.

I like your idea of the separate flanges for 12a and 13b. I'll PM you about the flanges.
