How will this one not crack? being that it is a one piece design like the factory manifold.
thats one of the worst manifolds ive seen, talk about reinventing the wheel.
and the way the center 2 cylinders ties in...looks cheesy. like an after thought

I like the design of the flow, but I too am wondering how it will keep from atleast warping. I'm sure cracking wouldn't be a big issue since it isn't cast, but with as much heat that will probably be going through it, I don't see how it can't warp. My stocker got hot enough and shrunk so much that is bloke the #6 manifold bolts off clean with the head. luckily they screwed right out by hand.
I was unaware you had entered the exhaust manifold design profession. Tell you what, why don't you give them a call and let them know all the things they are doing wrong.
