Stick to your V8's. Sorry we have 6's and they work. I get about 18 to 22mpg and I not in any hurry to get to the next stop light. My truck is for work and so is the 6 in it. Put a header on it. Could suck like small block ones do. Leaky Little...
I own a 235 in my 53 chev and have 250 non-inter head in my 78. I owned just as many v8s as I have 6's. All my 6's where and are bullet proof.
My 235 has a stock manifold cut into two pieces and welded to plug them up where the cuts where. Then for the last two exhaust ports (the new second piece) drill for another flange to be welded. Bam, Dual exhaust manifold. The important part is the heat exchange between the intake and exhaust manifolds, which this provides. And is a cheap way of doing it.
My 78 Needs some kind of dual exhaust option in it also. I was at my buddy's junk yard he pulled a dual exhaust manifold for a integrall head motor. He thought it would fit mine. It supposly came off a nova, late 70's check for that also.
If I was you I would get rid of the integral head. Its a mess. Just get a exhaust manifold and intake off a early or later 250. I think the integral was introduced in the trucks in 80 or 81. In the cars in 76.
