1971 - 340 exhaust manifolds
« on: September 07, 2009 - 06:43:25 PM »
I had a chance to buy some original (apparently not cracked) 1971 - 340 Exhaust manifolds.
I dont have a 71 car but they are date coded july 1970 and I was gonna buy them anyway.
How difficult is it to find original manifolds and what do you think they are worth?

You should have gone ahead and got them.  The date code could have been correct on your car.  They took some off the shelf and could have been already made.  They would be correct for my car. 
Got a pretty good start on my M46 optioned Barracuda restoration but now it is on hold till I can gather more funds.  Still need a few parts for it.  SIU Graduate 75 AAS Automotive Tech, 94 BS Advanced Tech Studies, 1997 MSED Workforce Education and Development

I already have the original 340 manifolds from our Cuda. I was just going to buy them in case someone was looking for some correct 71 manifolds in the future.
