Hi guys

I have a 1998 mercrusier 350mag mpi I have a very slight crack on my inlet manifold probably caused my frost at some point although its not causing any issues I would like to change it to stop issues in the future

Where is the best place to source one also are there any performance variants worth considering or just stick to a standard one?

Serial number is 0L050645 if it helps

Thanks
Si

Re: Inlet manifold

take it no other manifold fit? seams abit excessive $1200 for an inlet manifold on a 10'000 year old engine lol

Re: Inlet manifold

There are very few places a crack on an intake manifold won't cause some type of issue. Are you sure its not just a flaw in the casting?

I know it's really not a problem it's been like it since before I bought it and I have had it 4 years but I'm trying to sell the boat for a bigger one and a buyer backed out on it on Saturday because of the crack so was going to sort it but not at that price lol I might liquid metal it and paint it so its not visible the crack it just to the left of the thermostat housing

Cheers
Si
