so about that crack... yeah. i finaly got time to tear the manifold out and it was full on broken all the way around. the only thing holding it on was the flange. and to add to the exhaust leak, there were no gaskets connecting the bottom to the flex pipe and holes all over the tubing. also there was no bolt to hold the manifold on under the distributer. me and my buddy welded up all the holes he could find and the crack, made a gasket and got a bolt to replace the missing one and it seems to run a bit better. still gotta figure out the electrical weirdness and burning oil.

edit ***oh and i have pics if anyone cares to see***
