Ok, spoke to laser place today, obviously the more i get cut the cheaper they become. The rough price at the moment based on getting 10 made would be about $25-30 each, although they did say that once i bring them the sample it could be cheaper. As for making the extractors, based on the price of the flange, then it should cost around the $150 mark to make for the F5A or F8B. I wont have any time this week to go to the laser cutters, so will be going next week to get them cut. Should have the first set of extractors ready within 2 weeks.

A set of extractors for $150, i'd be very keen if i wasn't going turbo. I'm up for 1 maybe 2 flanges to make custom manifolds with tho.

Cheers

Price is still around $150, just have to see how long it takes to make. As for how close they will come to the alternator... I'll only know when i start making them. So i'll let u know next week.
