Default HTT manifold cracked after only 9 months!!!!

My HTT manifold has a crack across the top after only 9 months. It is leaking top & bottom. Anyone else have issues with HTT manifold cracking or coating coming off?

I haven't had any problems with my HTT. Give them a call; I'm sure they will work with you on it.
Did you torque it properly?

Highest I have ever seen was 1700* after a sled pull. On the street, I haven't seen over 1300-1400* briefly [only when I am playing]. I never hold it above 1250* for longer than about 10 seconds. The manifold was properly torqued & rechecked.

I did call, they won't even consider warranty. They lost a good customer.

That's too bad. Did they offer to help you out on pricing for a new one?
