there $30 less per side, this is the second set of manifolds I've bought for this boat, the first set I went with GLM and they cracked around the bolt holes for the risers. Don't want to go through that again.

Are there any manifolds that are not going to deteriorate? I here good things about ceramic coated ones but is there any better?

I did a ton of research last year, everyone told me to go with OEM parts. I could never get an answer as to who makes the OEM parts though.

Osco has a good rep and would be my first choice if OEM was out of reach.
