Any thoughts on center rise manifolds compared to the log style. A few have told me that it doesn't change the performance but everyone uses them nowadays....??? |

I purchased these through glenwoodmarine.com I believe they cost around $650 as shown. The engine is mostly stock, reverse rotation. The Edlebrock intake and Glenwood logs saved over 100 lbs in weight. Engine is in 1969 Century Arabian. |

I hope that's a FW Cooled motor with those dissimilar metals (the intake and block).

Well, no luck with them. Although, they did say there is a lot of boat restoration going on, I can't believe that there is a bigger market for Buick marine exhaust than SB Chrysler. |
