Exhaust manifolds
Ok I have used search box.
My question: how or where would the factory rams horns dump on a 72 with 350? I ask because truck was originally a straight 6 that the p.o. converted with headers and they hang way to low and I have a set of rams horns but unsure what the came off of. They both have about a 45° angle to the rear, basically need to know if an off the shelf exhaust system will work or am I going to have to take it to a shop and wait, and if so is it safe to drive it the 15 miles or so to said shop or am I going to need to borrow a trailer. Thanks guys |

Re: Exhaust manifolds
Original would have been angled on both sides with the heat riser on the left side.

Re: Exhaust manifolds
I think 2wd angle back, 4wd go straight down.

Re: Exhaust manifolds
Tow it to a shop and have it made. Don't drive on only manifolds.
Here's what the original manifolds on my '72 (2wd C20) looked like: |
