Great man!

Did you ever figure out why it happened? I mean there are so many dezod manifolds that never break.. but a couple here and there did you find out why ?

Yes we did find out why this one cracked. The spring loaded bolt assembly was not installed correctly at all. The springs where mix-matched from another app and they where completely installed incorrectly.

Sorry for the confusion, but I do not even know how ANY of it got confused at all. I don't know where the notion of a new manifold even came from.

Was there a support bracket?

Yes fail on install.

My T'netics kit didn't come with the spring bolts either - I used the OEM ones. It only made sense.
