[Tigers] Headers versus Cast Iron Exhaust Manifolds

[Ron Fraser]

	The LH exhaust manifold is a Falcon part C3DZ-9431-A and maybe
readily available.   The RH exhaust manifold is a Tiger only part, not
easily found.


Ken Miles took 2 log type Ford exhaust manifolds, reversed them, ran the
exhaust pipe forward then down and back, these manifolds are readily
available.

Subject: [Tigers] Headers versus Cast Iron Exhaust Manifolds


I was wondering if anyone has a strong opinion about whether a Tiger is
really better off with headers versus the original cast iron exhaust
manifolds.  I think the obvious benefit of headers is the gain in
horsepower, but the tradeoff seems to be in the added difficulty in
maintaining the car, given the tight engine bay.  Anyone have an opinion re?
I'd like to have a set of the original manifolds that it seems everyone
seems to have junked because they are so restrictive.  Are there any out
there and available?  I'm just thinking that for me, regular manifolds might
be enough... I'd like to try some out.  Thanks.  M
