Your joking right? This has been covered numerous times on here just search ,project dc2 made a thread the other day showing the quality on the ssautochrome. The things are junk, just get a good manifold the first time and call it a day.

BTW: ive seen one in person where the kid bought one and the welds werent even finished on it! Also the new "braces" they put on them are a joke, a tooth pick could perform just as well.

Amen to that . . . several people I have talked to have not had problems with the ssautocrap, but most people have experienced problems.

I have one sitting right next to me for a D Series Motor, and I must say that they are really light. They look good, but I would just make sure not to cheap out on the manifold that is important.

If you need a log manifold or equal length PM me and I can take care of you

sell it if you have one....wait you wont be able to....GIVE IT AWAY....my mother could make a better quality manifold....yes price looks tempting...ooo aaaa budget boost! but in the end you will be either replacing your motor or the kit....I personally am putting a turbo kit together for 1,400....aint that bad in my opinion....and I didnt grab crap parts...and I also have a freshly rebuilt turbo

it will crack unless you support the weight of the turbo, if the turbo is supported it will hold up fine
