Review on Dorman 674-272 Exhaust Manifold for Toyota Car Models by Corey Moulton

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Cheap junk. Poorly made. DO NOT BUY

If I could give less than one star I would. The item arrived damaged. And not because of the transport, since the box with the case is in perfect condition. The heat shield looks like it was roughly nailed in place with a hammer. It can be hard to tell from the attached photos, but it literally looks like someone dropped it, bent it, and then roughly reshaped it with a sledgehammer. As if it were made out of foil. One of the seals required for installation is missing. I checked the contents of the box twice. It just doesn't exist. Casting is total crap. Approximately 20% of both manifold ports are blocked with excess casting material. It looks like it should have been deleted after being dragged off the form. I think I will. Thanks Dorman. Very dissatisfied with this purchase. **UPDATE*** I haven't had to hook this thing up to an exhaust pipe yet. I've tried everything except welding in place. never flat. Every single gasket I've installed fails within a few days. ALSO. A crack has opened on the front of the manifold. So that had to be fixed as well. Those things are absolute cheap junk. DO NOT BUY ANYONE.

Pros
  • Complete rebuild - includes all required gaskets and drain pipe hardware
Cons
  • Not bad but...
