My wife got her new flock of peepers the other day. My records show this is the 38th manifold assembly I have replaced. Sounds like a lot but considering I have been working on my own for thirty years it is not. Back 10-15 years ago I used to buy the manifolds three at a time. Rod.

In regard to these chicks and the conversation we had last night about them you really need to explain to her that there is a good day to butcher chickens just not on the day of the show/tractor pull in Worthington!
 
Almost 100% of the manifolds I have replaced came off 504 turbo engines. It is just common for the center section to crack after a few thousand hours. The higher the HP the sooner they seem to crack. I have never yet replaced a replacement manifold, but I have learned never say never. Rod.
