    The difference is the quality of the material, the very high quality merge collector, and the crack free welds. These manifolds have a lifetime warranty against cracking.

    For me it is worth it.

          Lifetime warranty against cracking with Stainless steel is remarkable. That's the main issue with tubular manifolds as far as I can see.

            "LoveFab, INC. was started in 2003. Our goal is to provide TOP NOTCH products at very competative prices.

            All of our manifolds are constructed using TIG welding processes, including FULL PENETRATION and backpurging. We use CRS 1018 1/2" thick flanges and 8 guage 304 stainless steel(16 guage can be had upon request). Because of this, all LoveFab manifolds come with a lifetime warranty on cracking(original buyer only). Do not fret though, we have not had a crack since September of 03, and our total failure rate is around 1.6%, which to our knowledge has been untouched by any other manifold production company in the business.

            We have been successful in keeping wait times down to less than two weeks on most orders, while obviously keeping quality up. However, extensive or custom orders will take slightly longer.

            If you have any questions about our products, pleast contact us via the Contact form!"

              304 is not fireproof, 309 or 310 is better, look it up. 304 takes 800-900c but hipower engines produce over 1000c while spooling (detonation is not problem when you are just making the boost) and just uder 1000c when driven to the max -> more heat -> more power
