I order a new exhaust manifold an it came in today. I could weld better than this. The mounting surface on both ends are bowed. So far no response from seller.

That's really shoddy. Glad they're taking it back.

I think I bought a used cat/manifold on here. They're illegal to sell used, but I found a user that had one

IMO the R53/R50 manifold should be recalled, they all crack in the same spot, the metal is tin can thin
