...and I installed a very cracked manifold on my rebuilt engine in 2022 and have about 28k miles on it and it hasn't made any difference whatsoever. No extra noise, engine hasn't failed, sky isn't falling. I have two non cracked manifolds in my yard I was gonna use "when the cracked manifold became an issue".
Hasn't become an issue.
Where did you get them Kevin? Did you grab the oil tubes or anything else from the engines?
