My intake manifold cracked today and sprayed coolant everywhere.
I read in this forum that this happens a lot. Is this a possible recall
item? I am really bumming now that summer has finally came to NY.

Should I use the OEM manifold or should I buy an aftermarket part. In short, is there anything better available?

I check gefracing.com they want $495.83, not cheap but, not too bad considering it could have been an engine replacement.
