It will be more reliable to make you own manifold from tin cans and aluminum foil than that ebay POS! Ok so I am exagerating a little bit but you get my point. Some of the cheaper manifolds sold on ebay are good to use. I would use the HF if you can get one and make everything work for it. I had that exact same manifold back in 04' and it broke on me in 2 weeks. If you want an ebay manifold get a cast one.

I would be more worried about the motor giving up before that manifold cracked honestly.

I have seen a few hf manifolds here in the market place, some with adapter plates already on them. Also there are a few cheap log manifolds in the market place.
