I decided no biggy it'll just be an annoyance and that I would live with it for the time being. Well this past week I took the stang up to CO for a week and since i've been back I've noticed the ticking sound has gotten much louder and I started smelling fumes in my car esspecially when I turn the heater on. I think that the colder weather may have made the crack bigger. Being on the fire department, I decided to grab a gas detector and the the Carbon Monoxide levels in my car jumped off the chart. The thought never crossed my mind that a cracked manifold could become dangerous. Has anyone ever had this problem? and would it be a safe bet that this is indeed coming from my exhaust manifold? I am going to pull the headers off with my next paycheck and throw some after market ones on. Theoretically this should fix my problem right? Just wanted to throw this out there, any input is welcome.</p></blockquote><p></p>
