Headers would be a better choice?

Just curious, do the outlets slant back, or straight down, I've seen both styles with the big outlets

they slant back looking similar to the 425hp manifolds but they clear the center link being a rear steer set up, unlike 64 and earlier being front steer. standard 348 and low hp 09 manifolds along with truck hit the cross member on 65s, and yes i have headers for the wagon but not for the CS as it has A/C.

Post a wanted ad on 348-409 in the for sale forum and offer to trade 64's for 65's. And watch there for some to come for sale. Someone may also see them on Craigslist in the US and point you at a set. I think they only sold a couple of thousand early 65 409's, then converted to the 396.

You might try Ivan at Perry's Projects in Gibbons. He does run across some pretty rare stuff at times. Otherwise this will be tough. My brother never tosses anything so when he put the 65 back together it still had those. He came to realize later how lucky we was to have kept them.

tell me about it, I think they ended up in a different cars trunk that went by by. im getting motivated , im order new pistions for both the wagon and the custom sport, long rod light weight rods , then I can start assembling this duo. ive got headers for the wagon but the custom has ac so manifolds it is.

I haven't been keeping up with prices lately but $600 for a set of 65 manifolds sounds like a great deal. They are very hard to find.
The 64 high performance manifolds are less rare but I don't think you could go too far wrong if you can get them for $500 or less.
went searching through my stash of parts and i cant find were i put my manifolds i found my 64s but i have no idea were my 65 went so any help would be appriated
I think you better look HARDER
