who made his manifold and what did he end up paying for it. An aftermarket manifold shouldn't crack in less than 2 months.

Evilchief: there was nothing bad said on performace forums. that was my point. blush.gif

i paid too much for my very poorly made custom manifold... in the vincinty of 1k after being told that they could do the thing for around 400 bucks... hasnt cracked yet but i wouldnt be surprised, its the fuglyest manifold on the planet.. try and get pics up soon mad.gif

if the guy is saying things like

QUOTE

thats definately reassuring, his already acknowledged that the failure is due to poor workmanship so i dont see him turning around and saying piss off, thats not going to be repaired at our expense..

my manifold since i've had it has caused all multiple exhaust gas leaks into the engine bay making the thing a dog to drive and further more a piece of shit to listen too.. hopefully its all resolved by this friday crying.gif

I thought he said it cost him $1400 and i was thinking that a simple log manifold couldn't cost that much. $450 is a more realistic price for what he got.
