Re: headers or manifolds




I do have an excellent pair of 273/318 cast iron exhaust manifolds with a working heat riser (rare in itself) #2961916 date coded 6-16-69; ready to bolt on; $25 plus shpg. for anyone interested; photos available.

Thank you,
Gary Pavlovich

The factory used manifolds because they are generally very reliable. There are the hi po 340 factory manifolds you could use if you can find some used. There are repros but pricey too:

If you are on a budget the fixed stock 318s should suffice. 2c.

Thanks,

TTI would be the only headers I would consider, way more pricey than they
need to be but will not leak, there is an obvious gain from making the
exhaust more efficient and noise level pretty much depends on mufflers and
overall system being ultilized.

I've got a stock LA 318 two-barrel with auto trans, runs like a champ.
Only mod is a dual exhaust system, but it's leaking at the manifolds, so
I'm going to take the manifolds off and fix them proper.  Was just
thinking, would you folks put headers on this engine?  I just drive it
around, but I drive it a lot.  Was wondering about power gains, noise
levels, more or less heat, etc.
