Yea as Bob (hotrodz) mentioned, if it aint broke, don't fix it. lol. I was trying to fix BEFORE it broke but it sounds like many are having great look with the OEM manifold. Really appreciate the feedback all that the stock manifold can hang

Your signature says youre running 800ftlb torque.. that is approaching (if not well-in) the danger-zone for VQ headgaskets. You could be an exception. But if you are looking to stay on the safe side of things, I wouldnt be worried about your intake manifold I would be worried about your headgaskets.
Wouldn't the closed deck and the Cosworth upgraded Head Gasket help with that?
