Someone obviously didn’t watch the whole video. They aren’t selling plastic manifolds they do 3D printed ones to ensure proper fitment before manufacturing them.

Hi @lzziana, thanks for your comment. What you’re seeing in this video is a sneak peek into our research and development process. As part of that process, we use plastic 3D printed manifolds to test fit on real trucks to ensure the design is accurate before we get the production manifolds cast with high-silicone ductile iron from our Canadian foundry. We are NOT selling 3D-printed plastic manifolds. You are correct that plastic manifolds wouldn’t last long 😊.

Many thanks!

Great! Let us know how it works out for you, we’d love the feedback.

You Got it! We will have HEMI Manifolds for the new body (DT) truck very, very soon!

@@BDDieselPerformance Awesome! Tell me more! And also, when do I get mine as a prize ? 😁😁

Available as of right....NOW! us.bddiesel.com/collections/shop?q=hemi%20dt

You're right, we built our reputation on BD Diesel and diesel performance! We're excited to leverage that expertise and expand our offerings to include gasoline vehicles and trucks as well.

@@BDDieselPerformance I'm not sure that's a good thing. I liken it to going to KFC for a taco. Sure they have them but they built a reputation making chicken. Best to get your taco's from a taco joint.

Sorry these manifolds do not fit 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee

Thanks for your question, because this kit relies on the CAN bus for information we would expect that to be different on the Freightliner so it would likely not work. We do have universal air exhaust brake kits that may be of interest.

I second that suggestion 100%!!! He's gonna resurrect the diesel communtiy!!!

We love Chris! thanks for watching!

The flow increase varies a little bit between the ports, but the average flow increase is about 25% (OEM avg 110cfm/port, BD avg 139cfm/port)

The installation is not high in difficulty, uses common hand tools plus the tools we include, and 90% of it is the same as a grid heater plate install.

@@BDDieselPerformance I'm not hating on you man I'd rather give you the money than the EPA pipe smoker Gail Banks.

These are intended for use with aftermarket turbos, that don’t have the factory exhaust brake feature

That was my first thought too. The old bus bar was bent vertically to reduce the amount of air it would block. I like the BD solution, but I wish the bar was shaved down in the middle. I think the thickness there is WAY overkill for the current the heater grid pulls. Plus, I would guess that it is going to add a lot of turbulence. I think I'm going to just remove the bolt, and bus-bar from mine altogether. I don't live in Canada where it gets -40, so I don't think I need the heater grid to be functional anyway.

The busbar blocks less than 10% compared to the OE, so negligible amount considering the turbulence caused by the heating elements and the very short span it is in the intake air path. The design was driven by the material selection and current draw of the heater. Not only does the bar need to prevent a melting nut from falling into the intake but it has to allow for full power of the heater.

Good question! The Longer fasteners, thicker manifold and thicker flangers will not increase the loads or stress experienced by the cylinder head. These upgrades allow the manifold and fasteners to survive the strain that already exists in the parts. These manifold upgrades will not have any effect on cylinder head cracking.
