Default need help with fast intake

I bouight me a fast 90 intake from another member today and I have some issues with it. It was supposed to be good but when we met I seen the floor of the intake has some warp and about an inch crack with a fair gap from the stress. I tore it apart and can see the stress mark but doesnt look to be all the way through. I wanted to send it to vengance or mamo to have ported but have reserve about wasting the money and having to buy another one down the road. Is there anyone who can repair it. I am afraid the heat might expand and contract it so much that it might eventually go through. Is the warping on the bottom normal, will it affect the performance. I only gave 350 so it was hard to pass up and figured I would give it a shot Thanks

Pics would be helpful here....

No camera phone....quality high res shots with a camera is best so we can clearly see whats going on.

It may be something silly that there is no need to worry....it may be something you have to be concerned with that may be fixable.

Hard to determine based on your description

Tony iPhone 4 has a 5megapixel and there is another that has a 8megapixel...don't hate on the camera phone lol

mine has the same warpage due to heat...just put down 497rwhp going lean with a 13.5:1 AFR...don't worry to much it will still make good power, but post some pics I am sure it can be repaired...

I have some really good pics from I phone 4. How can I import them. I have looked at other pictures on here and seems to look same as mine but mine received a crack from it. It does seem to be a little thicker in that area though. Ill try to get them up. I wanted a 102 but on the c5 zo6 there suppose to be some clearance issue with that one so I have to deal with used.
