Ed A., that would be a PERFECT and CORRECT statement IF everyone mounted 
their exhaust system correctly.  I would wager MOST do not.  When that is the 
cast there is SERIOUS torque applied to said manifold with the result of 
breakage.

'Course it IS easy enough to not spend the $$s on "correct" mounts and save a 
few $$s bu purchasing "universal" mounts at Pep Boys, AutoZone, etc..

In the long run, huum me thinks manifolds are EXPENSIVE and quite (trial and 
error) a PITA to "fix".
