Get a set of 94-98 headers. They dont crack, and they flow better.

Not trying to hijack the thread but might help the op.
From my experience, the passenger side usually cracks around the flange on the bottom before the manifold itself cracks. The drivers side can crack anywhere, really. Mine was cracked on 2/3 of the collectors

Thanks guys I'll probably start a new thread if I have more questions. I don't want to hijack the thread. The 94-98 headers sound like a good option.

Again, you won't be able to see the crack more than likely.

Yeah it did for me. It's not that it goes away, you just can't hear it
