This is what happens when people care more about looks than performance and reliability. The weld next to it LOOKS good...but it's pretty small. I'd have put a larger bead on that stuff...and at least tacked it inside, if not welded it solid.

If you don't care about the looks, drive it to the local muffler shop and have them mig it up...and it will hold for a while.

thanks for the offer cs...if they flake on me, ill def get back to you on that

if the metal is too thin, and they wont reweld it for me, would it make sense to just get a new one from a better fab company so this sort of thing doesnt happen again?

Anyone?

Get the mild steel one redone (i noticed some holes on the other weld on the dump as well) or should i play it safe and buy a new stainless one?

Take the option of contacting KRB out of the picture. He fell off the map and won't do anything anymore. He left me with about 10 manifolds pending. ::)

If you want a stainless one, let me know, could do 1 in no time at all. If you want it rewelded, I vouch for CSaddict, hes a great guy to deal with and hell fix it up right.
