RE: [Chrysler300] 440 TNT Exhaust manifold

[Nancy Kramer <nekramer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

They are 4 bolt exhaust manifolds as used on some Dodge trucks with hemi 
engines.  I can remember hunting them at junkyards from truck 
engines.  From what I know they were used on the hi performance 392s in 
1957 but may work on all hemis.  Anyway that is what we were hunting them 
for.  We bought a set at Hershey some years ago quite reasonably.  They 
were used on hemi truck engines and maybe boat engines in 1957 and maybe 
other years.
