I talked to a guy at RARE a few weeks ago. He said the reason they're behind is they had a deal with a foundry to produce their manifolds. The foundry kept dragging their feet saying next month and then next month, etc. 6 months later the foundry said they weren't going to do them so they had to start looking for another foundry that would do it. They finally found one thats saying the end of Aug. Rare is hoping to start shipping out manifolds in October because they have to to do the machining on them once they get them from the foundry. Rare said that's a best case scenario with their fingers crossed. That's the story anyways. I'm waiting on some oversized d ports for my 70.
