Does anybody know if chevy ever made ramshorn exhaust manifolds for the 396? If so how hard to find are they??

No. Ram Horn exhaust manifolds are a small block only deal. The big blocks have 4 equally spaced exhaust ports, so the manifolds have 4 separate runners. The 348 and 409 had the center exhaust ports paired up like a small block, but even those exhaust manifolds don't look like the Ram Horn.

Thanks for the info. I thought it was a small block only deal, but wasn't sure.
