It looks like the top crack does travel through the gasket sealing surface.

Make sure you take plenty of close up pictures so he knows what to expect.

So this is kinda normal then?

Them cracking is not really NORMAL , it just happens and you can live with it as long as it doesnt go far enough . you should have the markings from where The gasket used to go see if it goes that far , I cant see it

Ok I'll check that out looked at the other side of The turbo and doesn't go all the way through its just on the side where the gasket goes thanks a lot for all the info

But this isnt part of the turbos themselves that is just the exhaust manifold you can remove the turbos from that manifold if the buyer's is better.

It's normal to have cracks in the manifolds. How to tell if the crack is bad (or how much time the manifold has left on it) when by how close the cracks come to going past the gasket area. As Monkman33 mentions, that crack appears to be already in the gasket area.

Yea they are and don't really want to sell them will most likely scrap it well let the person who is interested if they really want it and thinks they can make it work just pay shipping and give me whatever they want maybe 15- 20 or whatever but would suggest looking for another set thanks everyone
