big exhaust manifolds. There is no provision to put a couple of exhaust bolts in because they are so big.

Very clean inside overall. Do all the Pontiac blocks have all that webbing around the lifter bores ?

It always amazed me how bad the Chevy exhaust manifolds are compared to the Pontiac exhaust.

Okay, that's it! Screw Donald Trump...I want to be 1st to volunteer: "The Intern; Musclecar reality TV" for Charley.

You sure know how to make a mess. Will the block need to be bored or just honed.

Ram Air Restorations makes an excellent repro manifold with the additional bolt features. Looks much

better than original. True 2.5" outlet too...

Buzilla..Does Ram Air Restorations have a web site ? Paceme..The one cylinder was pretty pitted so it will need to be bored.

Your orig. manifolds will be a 5 bolt. RA resto makes the 5 bolt SD, as a repro. The RAIV & 455HO 70-2, had the three bolt design.
