Yeah I never heard or noticed anything regarding this crack, my fear obviously is that it will get worse. The shops fabricator is doing the repair soon so I'll post photos when he's done. I know he has to heat the manifold to repair it properly but that's all I know at the moment.

BTW: I had the off-the-shelf Wiseco 9:0/1 pistons. ANY discussion about lag or being soft at low and mid throttle from my standpoint is irrelevant. My tuner (Mike Botti) did his magic, and if anything it had more grunt than stock. Incredible. It's STILL a big honkin 3.7L V6. Don't overthink this area. Firsthand experience.

Thanks for that post. Let me know, please.
