72 340 exhaust manifolds
« on: August 15, 2015 - 06:58:57 PM »
I found a set of manifolds today for what seems like a good price, but in think they are for a dart...i am guessing they will not fit my cuda...or did i goof by not buying them???

Forget about 72' exhaust manifolds unless you're going back to 100% stock.

The 68-71' 340 exhaust manifolds were a way better design. 2.25 outlets.
Better flow and better looking.

Yeah, they're bucks.

Maybe the later 318 5.2L ci Dakota exhaust manifolds you might check into.

I remember CP saying those flow well but I've never played with them before.

The truck Magnum manifolds are some of the best flowing manifolds & should be available & cheap

both I believe 318 & 360 are different so I would look for 360 ones & I heard some years were better too .
