cracks right at the joint where one of teh 4 pipes connect together to teh 2 pipe connection...

some guys selling used ractive for 80 bux...itll probably cost me that much to weld anyways??

what do you guys think?

thanks guys

How big is this crack?

even if it did cost $80 to weld it(which i highly doubt) i'd personally get it welded instead of buying a ractive header.

crack is at the seam, where the original weld is....

i know ractives not teh best ....but are they that shitty?

^yes they are that shitty

Did you buy the header brand new? If so contact the manufacture of the header and tell them what happened. They should send you a brand new one back. Depends on their policy ...

if not just buy a new header. Go for something more "high" quality. SMSP or RMF are a good example of high quality headers but they do cost a pretty penny.
