If you have a D16Y8 (6th gen EX) motor, I hear that's a common thing with the stock header unfortunately.

Re: cracked stock header

I have a 97 ex, with 117k on it. Im not really surprised that it is cracked, but I am wanting to get a new one. any thoughts on which way to go? How much is this cutting my performance?

Re: cracked stock header

If you don't want to replace it (with a junkyard unit or aftermarket header) and you have some tools you can patch the crack.

Check here

Good ones I hear are Chikira (Hedman), of course DC Sports, A'PEXi, and if you can afford it, the Bisimoto spaghetti look header.
