Funny, the manifold is not the problem. It’s the bolts

Never drill. Always weld nuts on

If the exhaust isn’t ticking the lifters are

Cheapest way to avoid that is never buy a dodge.

Is that better than a set of headers?

RAM should’ve stepped to the plate and replaced the materials. I had to replace both sides, labor and materials my cost.

All the hate for Rams, I drove my first (2006) ten years not one issue. I have been driving my 2016 eight years zero issues so far. Don’t buy into the Dodge/Ram narratives, they make good trucks.

Fortunately broken dodge manifold bolts come out easier than GM and Ford.

Actually , your likely to hear a tick more then a actual exhaust note it’s self , now with that being said you can weld nuts to the broken studs and remove them that way very common for dodge 😅

should really weld a nut on a broken stud and extract rather than drill

There’s a bad bolt in every car/truck. This is why you buy USED, and upgrade with high performance parts and EPA delete all vehicles. Both my Rams run like scalded dogs and almost have nothing stock. All stock parts are generally garbage.

Truth In Motion :
The problem is the casting is too thin and warps. That’s what breaks the studs. The good news is that once cast iron warps, it’s done moving. Machine it straight and reinstall. Problem solved. Old school racers knew this. That’s why they only wanted well seasoned blocks that were done moving. They hold tolerances better than new blocks.

The factory has since upgraded to a new design for the DS body, added tie bars to not let the manifold expand so much and break the bolts. Been with a Ram dealer for 5+ years in rust country and have never seen a drill come out for a broken bolt. If they are broken sticking out the guys twist them out with vice grips most of the time. Feel bad for the guy drilling lol
