Default hf manifold cracked

hello , been a member for quite some time, but this is my first post. i have a 1990 crx with a d16a6. and i was going to turbo the car. ive started to buy a few things for it. the first thing i bought was a hf manifold because i was going to use a t25.when the manifold came it looked great as it was media blasted recently, however i noticed there is a 2" crack on the bottom on one of the runners. is this repairable or am i screwed over and have to but another and better mani?

Just go grab another from your local junk yard. They are plentiful and cheap!

I wouldn't waste my time welding one up, unless I had a welder and knew what I was doing, but I don't have a welder so the junk yard would be the easier solution for me.

if you can weld, fix it. clean it good and bevel the crack a little bit, and fill her in.
