Good luck! They had me on backorder for one for a month before I finally told them to cancel the order and got one from Ford the next day.

there's a TSB - shield the manifold, and there are no probs.

But a new header will crack for the same reason -that's metallurgy.

which side? cuz they crack on both sides. ive even seen one where just the egr bung was completely broken off.

the tsb that you speak of calls for checking the Y pipe right before the cats for a broken weld, and the shield that you install goes on the firewall to redirect the water from the Y pipe not the headers. the parts that you order even include a revised exhaust hanger.

sure, so will headers.

That's why you get the coating to reduce the temp differential.

Technical Service Bulletin - alerts mechanics & dealers to issues.

Most dealers replace the manifolds for free if you have under 100,000 miles.
