Exhaust Manifold
I need to replace one of my exhaust manifolds. I see that LMC truck has them for around $140. Have any of you ever bought one from LMC? If so, were you satisfied with it? I just don't want a poor reproduction part, that won't look like the original.
Thanks, Kevin |

The only thing that may work in my favor is that the PO put a crate motor in about five years ago, so it's not like they have 40-years worth of rust. Any thoughts?
