    Exhaust manifolds? How long have they been in business? Are they new or reconditioned manifolds? Call.

    (I guessed and found your PNs under GM exhaust manifolds).

    Have you tried finding the part you need using the app and car-part.com, or asking at your local wrecking yard that subscribes to the Hollander interchange network? I suspect the prices from Stevens will be no cheaper than sourcing the parts locally through Hollander and having the part surfaced... maybe not. Ask.

    Thats pretty much what im looking for. Do you know the year and model it came from?

    Tim,
    havent had much luck with the yards around here. Anything of that vintage is made of unobtainium or gets stripped as soon as it hits the yards.
    One yard I asked searched but nothing local in state. He said he didnt like dealing with out of state yards because he's been burned on actual conditon of parts like that before.

    I have never heard of this company either, but their products deserve taking a look at. I need some Ford PSD manifolds that are very expensive. Used are always no good.

    Tracked down an old yard south of me about an hour and a half away. It sounds like he has a 79, 80 olds with a 3.8. He even knew jeeps had it up till 71. He's got bankers hours so its going to be hard for me to get down there. I might still call this stevens place and get a price. The yard wanted $50 for the manifold

    I got a couple hours off work tuesday morning. Im going to run down there and hopefully get it. Im more interested in seeing this place. Doesnt let the public walk around but he's going to take me out there to make sure the one he has will work. Ill try to get some pics if I see anything good

    here's what I got today. Came off a 77 cutlass. The maring surface on the manifold is nice and clean. Looks like the car was parked there for the last 20 years.

    Saw alot of old bugs and a few cjs and one mid 70's gladiator. Everything there body wise is junk but cool to see anyways. Sorry didnt get any pics. They guys there are a little parinoid...
    if anyone is in southern mich or northern ohio and wants to get ahold of them let me know. Cash only. No internet. No public in yard...

    Oh, it has a vacuum heat riser. Anyone use one or just leave it out? It does hold good vacuum

    The heat riser helps if it's really cold. Might be good to keep it in Michigan.
