    Re: AWE headers. Nice welds!!!

    I am sure there will be a few here and there out of the many manifolds any company puts out that could fail. I am sure if AWE saw this and you had purchased everything through AWE they would want to fix that issue.

    This one issue shouldn't deter anyone from purchasing from AWE. Their products and customer service is excellent!

    Cheers

    I wish someone would make cast manifolds. The 300ZX guys went through all of this already with stainless, inconel, etc. They all crack (and it was multiple companies with their own manifold). Other people even welded in reinforcements in certain known weak areas and that only seemed to prolong the inevitable. The problem wasn't solved until we went to a cast manifold. Now everyone is happy. It's cheaper and doesn't crack. :-) Too bad I just got my stage 3 car back today. I definitely would have done manifolds if someone made a cast version that I know wouldn't crack.
