new VAC manifolds

Has anyone bought/installed the new replacement VAC intake/exhaust manifold? Just curious if they are cast and machined decent? Also wondering if the country of origin is cast on the manifold? I'm assuming it's cast in china and really don't want to see china cast into it each time I walk by or glance at the manifold.
 
Why not put on a good used one that was on a VAC like the one or 2 I have. I know I have at least one good manifold off a 1946 VAC I have. I know I sure as heck would use a used one before I would use an aftermarket one
 
My concern with getting a used one is the bolts that hold the elbow that bolts to the manifold. If it is rotten or in bad shape and fails, good luck in removing those 60 year old rusted bolts that hold it onto the exhaust to replace it.
 
To remove those bolts just takes time and heat and ATF Ya they can be hard to get out if you have the need to get them out
