Re: cracked drag manifold (bluebullet)
i have a cracked rev-hard manifold.. id imagine the materials are similar.. ive asked a few places if they could weld it and they say the material is so inconsistant that it would crack all the way through if they tried to weld a small section

Re: cracked drag manifold (zojirushi)
There is an epoxy made by Permatex, I think, that is for cracked manifolds...I've heard that it doesn't last forever, and it might be shorter on a high-temp turbo...there might be something, though.

Re: cracked drag manifold (dlplayboy)
I had a huge crack down the middle of my cast iron rev-hard manifold back in the day. I just drilled the crack out clean so it cant spread more and welded inside it. Its not to hard, just gotta take it to a performance shop that welds......Mike
