Took a couple of pics , and overlaid a scan of a gasket on top of the drawing.

Theres naff all in it , so im going to stick with the original drawing ( if people want the holes a bit bigger it will take about half a second to reem the holes open further with a die grinder before welding anyway.
looks like it, i gave it to someone a while ago, glad its of use.

you can drill stainless, even though it will be harder (heat cycled) once lasered, just run the drill very slow and use lots of cutting fluid.

Here's something - are those holes a little too close to the edges of the flange?

Seem fine to me , they are to drawing as per previous posts and drew has used the same clearances in the past.

Doesnt leave much gasket showing either.

Daz, there is unfortunately a slight warp of a couple of mm. The amount of heat that goes in to cutting them lifts them a little due to the amount of material we have taken away.

I had a word and this is unavoidable tbh , the solution is to get it skimmed after welding....

I can get it skimmed for you before despatch , but that means making it thinner , and then when you have welded it i suspect its going to warp again and you will need to skim it further so its entirely up to you :)

The warp at the moment is something that if your welding didnt make it any worse, would be taken out with the gasket and the pressure of the bolts clamping it.

The welding's abit dodgy,time to file and smooth it all don then reweld and smooth off,then get it skimmed and heat wrapped,it's going to be tight against the alternator,fingers crossed.

Tried manifold on car yesterday,fits head perfect,tracts clear step on head and alternator but bottom flange is a mile off turbo needs brought forward an inch and need to lengthen bottom part by an inch,abit gutted,thought the flange wouldnt be that far away,i'll get more pics up when i get time,on a plus note it looks good when it's on.

I can do another group buy of 5 if people are interested.

Daz had some reservations after receiving his that the flange didnt have enough meat around the bolt holes at the outsides and that the holes werent 100% bang on, if someone could comment and decide if they want any changes made and then start adding names i can sort it out :)
