Just wanted to write a quick thread/info warning others about these rubbish Chinese Stainless Steel manifolds as available on Ebay.
I bought one a while back and was distorted and had small holes/leaks when it arrived. Welded up leaks and trued it up on the Mill before I fitted it, and in no time after it was fitted/vehicle running, it distorted again and leaked like a sieve. Stainless steel does not conduct/cope with heat well.
Threw it out with the scrap and coughed up for a cast iron manifold.
