I have a 409 in my CC Explorer

I have a 409 in my CC Explorer 25.1 it took me over a year to locate exhaust manifolds for it I found some aluminum but I'm on the ocean I finally found some on ebay. I have most of the numbers for the tune up parts my distributor is a mallory with no vacuum advance. These engines are hot rodders dreams so most of the internal are easy to get. Feel free to drop me an email if you have any questions.
