340 manifolds
« on: October 14, 2008 - 04:51:01 PM »
Hi. I picked up a pair of exhaust manifolds # 2863553 and 2863549 , The fellow said these are Hipo manifolds, is there a difference between these and others Thanks

Yep high performance. What is the exchange rate from canadian to US? I think those manifolds here in the States go between 300 and 600  (US) depending on condition and you can buy reproductions for 650.

The only real difference they found in dyno tests between them and the common log manifolds on a 360 is about 5hp at certain rpm's. They do look cool though.
