I am going to get Flowmaster 40s for the mufflers. And i was looking for a good split exhaust manifold. Chevy duty has one and so does clifford performance. does anyone have either manifold on their 235 and what do they sound like. I am deciding on which manifold to get. Also how do the 235s sound with dual exhaust and does it perform any better? If anyone has a comment about dual exhaust on a 235 please let me know!! Thanks

There is enough good in the worst of us and enough bad in the best of us that it does not behoove any of us to criticize the rest of us.

I didn't drive the truck much with the original manifold, so I can't say much about power difference. With cheapie mufflers, it was actually pretty quite, but, I'm sure they would have a nice sound to them with better mufflers  . Since I'm dropping in a TBI 350, I don't really have a use for these fentons, so you could email me if you're interested. | | |

They're in Hutchinson and do excellent work. Search this forum and you will find phone numbers and a picture or two. They do an excellent job, and won't work with a bad manifold.

Nothing sounds as sweet -- or unique.
I can just let it sit and idle and just listen.
No performance gains... but that's not the point is it. | | |
