I need a specific (non factory but common) iron manifold for my Toyota L6 - I can get Chinese junk for $150 or excellent American for $500. | | | | | Joined: Dec 2014 Posts: 357 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Dec 2014 Posts: 357 | My Manifold came from Langdons. He modified it because I was keeping the original steering the price was OK

On the 292 type motors lots are running Langdon's headers no issues. | | | | | Joined: Nov 2014 Posts: 70 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Nov 2014 Posts: 70 | I will research Langdon's, I really would like to use the cast iron manifold to maintain the original look. I have 2 one of which is cracked and the other I dropped while drilling the collector studs out. Unfortunately the fall broke it.

The one I see most often has the big exhaust pipe diameter and a 3 stud flange.
