Exhaust Manifolds Questions

[Heath R.]

I have a 78 with a L-48 and both of the exhaust manifolds are cracked. Where is the best place to get the correct OEM parts?

For exactly correct, you're going to need to find good used manifolds from one of the used parts sources like Pacific Corvette, Contemporary Corvette, Paragon Vintage, etc.

No need to pay retail prices for items like that. I suggest swap meets (Carlisle, amongst others) and even eBay!

Before installing I suggest sending them to Gene Schafer @ Central Connecticut Coatings for their patented ceramic heat coating followed by the "GM cast gray" coating. They will never rust and actually look better with age. Its $250 total.
