Exh. manifold options for '86
This is sort of an offshoot of the ram-horn thread...
My '86 K10 (305) has the upswept exhaust manifolds and they look like they could be pretty restrictive. I'm not interested in ram-horns or headers, but am wondering if it'd be worth it to replace the manifolds with a set of the traditional log manifolds. Granted, this is a stock 305 with 83K showing (probably 183K) so if the current manifolds are OK for its power level I'll just leave them in place. Thoughts? Brad |

If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Reallly you won't see enough of a performance gain to make it worth the hassle of changing to another log style manifold....

Yeah, that's pretty much what I was thinking but I'm one of those people who can't let well enough alone...
I haven't decided if I'm going to keep the truck for a long time (it needs plenty of bodywork) but if that ever happens the 305 will be replaced with a 350 and I'll upgrade the manifolds then. Thanks! Brad |
