| 1962 Newport 361
I got a good deal on a set of '68 C- Body Hp exhaust maniolds.
The pass side is ok. The drivers side exits right towards the
steering box. Muffler guy says it won't work.
What will fit the drivers side? Are B-Body HP manifolds exiting
somehwere else then the C-Body? Is there a pass side I can flip
around?
Already had to trash shorty headers, hate to keep throwing money at
this thing.
Thanks!

The 1962 C-Body is an Centre Dump Unit. In stock OEM usage they
where used up to the 440 Engine Size ( 1967 was the last production
year and this was with an D-Body ).
Flow Wise the same unit was used to 6.000 published RPM's.
All they did was use an Exhaust Manifold inside diameter
to dual Mufflers. From The Exit of The Muffler's is an two
inch dual pipe unit ( The bends up - over and around The Rear
Axle Unit "in an clean manner" is an designed route.

Location: WHEELING,WV.>>>HOME OF WWVA | i believe these to be the casting numbers rodger is referring to R - 2205535 ...... L - 2205536 . if your lucky enough to find 63 -64 -- 426 street wedge rear dump they will look and work great R - 2402334 ...... L - 2402336 i have the same problem with fitment on red , because of the steering box . i'm using the 535 - 536 center dump ones , oem for my 64 - 383 motor . there's another set of different ones on ebay right now but i'll have to get back with the link and they aint gonna be cheap -------------------------------------------later

| Guys,
So the newer truck style center dumps flow better then the original logs? They look very simular.
Thanks.
Chuck, those A body RB manifolds really choke down on the drivers side, wow. Thanks. |

Instead of saying why spend the funds for something differant when the OEM
Units proved be very well made for lots of power and lots of flow.
I will answer the quest with an Manufactures end result.
Look at these and you will see they are the latest/ newest design of the HP
design type of Exhaust Manifold ( see the long cased Holding Nuts ) with the
needed centre dumping section.
When used there is no removing any of the Steering Compontents, any starter
sold for any year MoPar will bolt in ( even if done by my Brother-In-Law ) and
no self made bad feeling because they require double the effert to install them.
When installed about 97% of other "inspector's" will never know that you installed
another Retro-fitting performance part.
