given the # of the manifolds that Greg has sold and I have had personal experience with, I would have to say that his manifolds are very well built. It is inevitable that you are going to have some degree of failures with a product that is working in such a harh environment and they have done their R&D work to build it to last. I dont know the circumstances that surround the few that have cracked, but I have put a good number of ponies through several different sets of them without incident - a few of those being some record-setting Z32's for their modifications as well. I was unaware of the design changes made at the pipe-flange interface until DAYTONAZ (Roland) sent me an email pointing out the reinforcement tabs to ask if that was what I was referring to in the private conversations we have been having concerning the assembly of my manifolds. When I saw the picture of the repaired manifolds, I noted that the outer pipe-flange area had been welded and the tabs were used, which is not how they were originally built. Checking on Greg's site also shows a new picture (like I showed in the original post) with the same welding/tabs used. Roland has come by my place a few times and seen the manifolds and I was telling him that I was planning to use the tabs. He just happened to find that classified post and pointed them out to me.
