1. Does it make sense to get another original manifold? This one is inexpensive...
92-95 Civic VX Y#02 OEM Exhaust Manifold & O2 Sensor | eBay
But won't it just crack again if the original did??

2. Is there a better manifold for FE that I can get that is CA legal?

3. Are there any hidden tricks to changing a manifold? It looks pretty straightforward.

and props to the VX... with car fully loaded and this huge crack, and no physical mods and 175 tires it STILL got 42 on the highway. Lovin it!!!!
Double check that that manifold is the same as on your car because the manifold in the ebay pic does not look like a factory vx manifold to me. Just saying
