Please enjoy and provide feedback.They make those manifolds by the thousands; that's why they are reasonable.Those are good looking manifolds and pretty cheap too. My originals were blasted and painted with an exhaust Manifold paint so they look pretty good. I’d also be afraid of the quality of an inexpensive off brand manifold vs OEM.
I just used high temp RTV only for my headers.Do you use high temp RTV on exhaust manifold gaskets?
Do it ! They will make that engine a show-stopper !Those are pretty sexy!
I seen those at the local speed shop Gearhead Performance but they were the ones for an LS engine, Very Nice, Remflex are the best gasketsThose hooker's above look like they'd work no? similar design to me cast iron OE manifolds but 2.5 inch outlet.
Sure I think they'd work for you if that's what you want. There's one other thing to be aware of when you're switching back to cast iron manifolds. As I said before all the Chevelle's had smaller 2 inch exhaust outlets so all the pipes that fit those exh manifolds had corresponding 2 inch head pipes.Those hooker's above look like they'd work no? similar design to my cast iron OE manifolds but 2.5 inch outlet.
