In a local junkyard I found a car with a one-piece '67 manifold (i.e. no secondary butterflies, as were stock on my '68). I gather this is pretty much the best in/out setup for a carbureted B18/B20. Problem is, it has a crack (not huge, but clearly visible) on the intake side. Is it worth pulling? Can it be fixed with JB Weld or something? And most important, would it be a worthwhile upgrade to my current setup, which is the exhaust section of the original '68 manifold with an early (pre-67) intake manifold?
