    Hello Everyone
    Just wondering is there any difference in the exhaust manifolds for the 350 engine? Are any years considered better? I just want to have stock exhaust manifolds on my engine and was wondering if I should have whatever I can get or look for certain ones.
    Thanks
    Drew :confused:

    manifolds

    manifolds are usually designed to fit for the vehicle that the engine is designed to be installed in . for fit reasons, the manifolds could be different for the model year or model size .
    the manifolds for a skylark/gs 350 may not be the same as those for a lesabre. only someone with a master parts book could tell u or someone experienced with engines could tell u .

    maybe i was lucky...

    a few weeks ago, i bought a set of exhaust manifolds from a 1970 dauntless 350, which is the buick 350 engine that jeep used on their wagoneers from 70-72...i only installed the passenger side manifold, but it fit the car perfectly, except where the manifold met the head pipe, but that was an easy fix--just removed the "valve" (i really don't know what it was, but it was stuck half-open anyway) on the end of the head pipe, and it bolted right up...

    maybe i just got lucky :Do No:

    If it would help you out, I could measure the manifolds I have and give you something to measure against. I have a set of both '68 and '70 manifolds. Let me know and I'll do it.
