eBay intake manifold

[E30 manic]

Anybody try one of the china eBay intake manifolds, was trying to price them out and the China ones is all I could really find. Just researching future projects, might start practicing with the tig welder again soon, if no ones tried one or if they suck that bad

Runners too short
Runners not equal length(brake booster clearance), different resulting fueling needs per cylinder.
I doubt the rest of it received much more thought.
Design philosophy seems to be "make this fit so we can sell them"
