Take a look at the pass side manifold on a 72 340 car.

HOW ABOUT THESE TRAIN WRECKS The above picture are of the typical 390GT manifolds used on Fairlanes and Comets 1966 through 1969. They were also used on the '67-'69 Mustnags and Cougars. the left side is just BARELY o.k, the right one (top) is horrible. Remember that the exhaust gases exiting cylinder 4 is angled forward so where that port merges into the rest of the manifold is high turbulence point. Also the heads were the drop port design which didn't help either.

I am glad my manifolds are much better than those 390 GT's.My porter got my 427 Fairlane manifolds to flow as much as the exhuast port will flow.They are being ceramic coated now and should have them back in a couple weeks.

 Yeah,

I guess if this was easy...there would be 100+ car fields at every race..

Part of the reason I play in this sand box is because it's hard....I am sure others too.


Thanks Joel...pyle on.
