I bought this manifold new several years ago, and finally getting around to putting it on. I threw it in the sand blast cabinet to touch it up. I found a light blue product of some sort in one place . After it came off, I found a long crack in the casting. I'm going to bring it to a shop and see of they can weld this cast iron. Anybody know what the blue stuff was, and would it have lasted. Tim uploads/8089/Manifold.JPG" rel="nofollow - uploads/8089/Manifold.JPG ------------- 1950 WD 1959 D14 1955 WD45 1976 7000 B 207 |

That doesn't look like any crack I've seen in cast iron. Looks more like a cold spot when it was poured? I have no idea what the "blue stuff" would be. ------------- http://www.ae-ta.com" rel="nofollow - http://www.ae-ta.com Lena 1935 WC12xxx, Willie 1951 CA6xx Dad bought new, 1954WD45 PS, 1960 D17 NF |
