Anyone had a cracked SSAutoChrome Manifold?
I was wondering any of you who bought a manifold from SSAutoChrome on Ebay had any problems with cracks on the manifold? Or any problems at all? Just wondering before i go buy one. Any feedback is great. Thanks

Re:Anyone had a cracked SSAutoChrome Manifold?
I asked that a few month's ago to...there should be a post about it. the welds are kinda shitty if you look inside the manifold..I was told and if you brace it it won't crack

you get what you pay for.
cheap headers cant be good They pretty from outside but ruf(dunno the spell) inside :-[ |
Re:Anyone had a cracked SSAutoChrome Manifold?
i've gotta agree with you on looking pretty on the outside and shitty on the inside, but who sees inside the manifold?As for the guys that dont like these manifolds and say they crack too easy,im gonna go against you guys on this one as i actually have one of these manifolds and i love it! lots of people on HMT have told me that the crack within the first month or so! ive had mine for 2 months now and its still there! im not saying that they dont crack tho.
just a question , all those who have dissed the manifold, actually HAVE one or have had experience with one cracking? Matt |
Re:Anyone had a cracked SSAutoChrome Manifold?
I have one. been in there for the past 4 months. no cracks at all.

Re:Anyone had a cracked SSAutoChrome Manifold?
i personally dont even like the way they look, the piping is tiny. The inside does matter because of how it will flow. Granted, it wont be a huge difference and since the manifolds are cheap they seem like a decent value.

Re:Anyone had a cracked SSAutoChrome Manifold?
if it did crack, couldn't you just weld it back together?

Re:Anyone had a cracked SSAutoChrome Manifold?
the one where the flange meets the head doesn't look too terrible. but the one where the pipes come together looks really sugared in that picture.. like they forgot to backpurge it or something..

Re:Anyone had a cracked SSAutoChrome Manifold?
so no one has ever got a cracked on their SSautochrome manifold.

Re:Anyone had a cracked SSAutoChrome Manifold?
I have had one in my car for 6 months.........nothing. No cracks, no bracing, no problems. I am going to get a new one though because the ------- thing dings on the hood because it is so tall. Other then that, no complaints.

Re:Anyone had a cracked SSAutoChrome Manifold?
I bought one a while back and didn't think it looked too bad. I havn't tried it out yet, so I have no experiences with it, but so far I like what I hear.
|
Re:Anyone had a cracked SSAutoChrome Manifold?
from what i "hear" they aren't too bad as long as you brace them.
|
Re:Anyone had a cracked SSAutoChrome Manifold?
i thought it's already braced?
|
Re:Anyone had a cracked SSAutoChrome Manifold?
It actually is already braced, but someone told me the welds for the braces need to be reinforced. They look fine to me though.

Re:Anyone had a cracked SSAutoChrome Manifold?
hmmmm oh well i already made my own manifol, and it looks a bit better from the inside at some spots although it could be better...but the outside of my manifold is a bit shitty.
I made mine for $50 so it's a better value ;D |
