Title: Disappointing quality
Review: Needed a new manifold for my jeep. This one arrived from Amazon - the price was better than most places. Product was made in China. Sand casting was poor, there was a large defect in the outside, appears to be from extra sand / material in the mold. The biggest problem was when I went to fit it. There was excess material on one of the flanges, that required extensive grinding to get the two manifolds to fit together! Next, I could not get one of the inside studs to thread, and discovered more excess flashing in a cavity where a bolt should pass, preventing the bolt from making it to the head. Machine surface was flat, did include a gasket to go between the two manifolds. Plugs in the air injection holes were not more than finger tight. Product worked otherwise, just poor quality control on the part of the manufacturer.
