WTB BBC exhaust manifold - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

454_72_4X4 · 04-11-2004, 01:38 AM

Hey guys,
I'm in bad need of a left side exhaust manifold for a big block.
I can send pics of mine to show you what I need or if you can send pics to me would work too.
I'll get the casting number asap but I'm sure there's more than one casting that will work.
Or can somebody tell me how to post pics and I'll just post a pic here of what I need.

Thanks

Canada20, I'm in the northeast corner of Missouri.

Thanks for the replies guys.
I'm not sure if those style manifolds will work or not. I should know by the end of the week when I get the motor together and in the truck. I have one like you posted but it's cracked too.

I'll see if it will fit and clear everything but I'd really like to stay with the style I had on it so I don't have to change the exhaust.

I'm gonna try to post a pic of the one I had on it. Hope it works!
If anybody know what this might have come off of I could sure use the info.

Attempt #1

Attempt #2

454_72_4X4 · 04-12-2004, 02:14 PM

YEEEHAAAA!!!

It worked!!!

BTW, The casting # is 3868297 or 3858297
Can't really read the date code but I think it's C 29 5

I seen one on ebay awhile back with casting # 3884503 and it looked almost identical to mine also.

454_72_4X4 · 04-13-2004, 12:59 AM

Bump!

Anybody?

**too much stuff** · 04-13-2004, 01:20 AM

Don't know if this helps, but the closest thing in my book is 3857297 which is a 1965 396 pass car. If it is possible the 4th digit is a 7, that is what you need.

454_72_4X4 · 04-13-2004, 02:09 AM

That might be. I'll check out the numbers again.
It was on my 396 when I bought it. Does your book show block numbers too?

About all I know about the 396 for sure is it has closed chamber oval port heads, the old style canister type oil filter, and a cast iron Holley pattern intake.

I'll get those numbers if you can decode them. Which ones do you need? Left side bellhousing flange and/or right side in front of the head? Any others?

**too much stuff** · 04-13-2004, 10:51 AM

I need the 7 digit casting # from back of block with the date casting also. I can do heads, cranks,etc.

454_72_4X4 · 04-15-2004, 02:24 AM

Still need that manifold fellas!

BTW too much stuff, I got a few casting numbers if you have time to look them up I'd sure appreciate it.

First, 396
Block
Casting # 3855961
Date code C 13 5

Intake, (if you can do it)
Casting # 3866948
Date code D 12 5

I'm guessing it's a 65 model engine?

Second, 454
Block
Casting # 3999289
Date code H 30 73

Heads
Casting # 336781
Date codes H 27 73
I 7 73

73 model engine?

Any info you can give me would be appreciated.
Thanks

Here is a web site with your big block id numbers.

**too much stuff** · 04-15-2004, 11:06 AM

First engine is a 65 396 pass. car 2 bolt main. Intake is cast iron, oval port for a holley off of the same.
next one breaks down to 73 454 car or truck application. Heads are the same. Oval port. 1973.
