Worry about it if/when it breaks. Should be fine if it was done by pro's

 

[rsifoxy]

[Fred@BTM]

they just MIG it? or go fancier??

 

[rsifoxy]

dont think the mig it they said they used proper cast weld???

 

[Tucker]

penetration certainly wont help the flow

 

[rsifoxy]

anyway why these manifolds snap sign of engine movement??? didnt look corroded?

 

[Fred@BTM]

cast weld? that's a new one on me!

you got a picture? as long as it was prep'd right and the guy doing it knows how to weld it'll be fine, strange it snapped!
