Hi!
Depends on what you mean by cracks.
Several people have discovered hairline cracks on these manifolds and I think the consensus of opinion is that they are ok provided they do not go all the way to the outside.
Can you post a pic?
Search the forum. There is definately a discission on this somewhere. Got to be worthwhile before you splash out on another one!
Heres one thread. Took a minute to find it!

They are so busy at the moment but they do have a couple left, maybe 1. They are approx £500ish (£430ish +vat) plus delivery

As Twoqu mentioned, the cracks may not be an issue at all. Are they in the collector? If so, that's not unusual. Do you have pics??
