440 exhaust manifolds question

Anonymous · Post by **Anonymous** » Tue May 10, 05 7:42 pm

My charger has different type of exhauast connection on each side. One is a flat flange that takes a gasket, the other side is a sort of ball end with flared exhaust and loose flange connection ( can be adjusted for angle a little)

anyone know what type it should have? car is a R/T

There are two different gasket set ups, right now I can't remember which one is Hi Po

what year is your charger ,

im stupid , it only took 2 mins to find the answer , its a 1970 so if all is correct ( according to my book) all 1970 440ci chargers ( except triple 2 barrel equiped cars) use the same manifolds :-
Passenger side part no 2899968
Drivers side part no 2951864
the tripple 2 barrel cars use the same drivers side manifold but a different passenger side one , part no 2951864.

hope this helps

Hi Will, all 68 to 71 hipo manifolds are flat flanged. The ball and socket set up is off a later model, probably 73 on, Cheers dude,Jon

Hen's teeth, like most things that went in the skip in favour of "superior" after market parts...

I know where there are some Hi Po manifolds but I doubt they will be cheap.

well at least i only need one. The RH one. I want to get it sorted as i would like to get a new system made up for the car sometime so its now or never.

seen some on ebay but none with that part number

<a href="http://search.ebay.com/mopar-manifold-s ... ageZsearch"> my search terms </a>

i guess as long as i get a flange type one and it kicks up like my LH one does, i should be ok?

beware that the C body hi-po manifolds are different to the B body ones. B body hi-pos don't work on a C body (driver side directs the outlet straight to the steering box) so I presume the c body ones won't work on a B body.

If you do come across some C body ones please let me know...

Year One sell them. They arent too cheap, but they are good cast repro items with ALL the correct stamps and numbers in. Gets rid of the guess work

I will get the casting numbers and price tomorrow mate

Hi again Wil, 70 and 71 r/h manifolds are almost impossible to find even in the US. When they turn up its normally a pair, and they sell for around $250, and shipping them is gonna be pricey. A cheaper option is probably a 68 to 69. Cheers Dude, from Jon.
