Rams horns?
Or other manifolds?
I know Sanderson makes them, but they are kinda ugly... they are for the '65 Chevy pickup I'm building.
I really don't want headers on the truck... unless I can find some that are really high quality... (extra thick flanges etc.)
Thanks guys,
Sam.
I hear dealer has em. Even can get them in 2 1/2"
Round $100 ea.

What's wrong with used ones?

Thanks for the help guys... and the link Root.
My dealership wanted $305 for a pair of 2 1/2" rams horns, so that price of $260 isn't too far off.
If it were my own truck I'd go with used ones... but when you're on the clock, scrounging, cleaning, having them surfaced, tapping bolt holes... all that stuff costs the guy $35 an hour... no matter how long it takes, so a lot of these things are just cheaper for the customer if you just go out and buy them.
I was kind of hoping that someone would be making a manifold these days that was good looking, smooth casting etc.
Oh well, http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Sam...
I have 4 ramshorn manifolds left, all 2". Trouble is, they're all driver's side (with the bracket holes). If you can scrounge up a plain 2" rams horn, you can have one of mine. They even have good studs on them.
Let me know.

Most of the Corvette parts places sell them, 2". 2.5", FI and big block manifolds. Zip has them all on this page from $99 (each, 2.5") imports to $259 each. Here is the link to the page,
