    Cracked manifold. Go shorties or afterburner

    Hey everybody, new to the site here. I'm venturing into uncharted territory now on an obs flairside and was hoping someone might be able to point me in the right direction. We stumbled across some buick rendezvous seats a while back while strolling through a pick-n-pull yard. These babies are...
