Default DRAG GenII Manifold fix?

My Drag genII manifold has a 3" hairline crack on the center, if I weld it up, will that really fix it or will another crack form after another a couple months

What kind of crack? Is it leaking boost? If you try sealant, it will only last for a while. You can get it welded.. but I think the air flow will be different.

Most likely its a surface tension crack, and it should hold up fine it you just have it rewelded.

The warranty only applies to the Gen 3 cast manifolds. Sorry.

I have a drag 3 that cracked here at my place and we tried to fix it. We welded it and then tried to bake it and it didnt work. This was done at a fab shop mind you.
