Hopefully the rest looks the same!That is a clean 5.0!

I would say the welded ones. Patch work. They are not shorty headers or anything like that. I'm not in front of the explorer currently. Hold On I have old pictures here somewhere.Cast way better then the early welded ones
When you say tubular what do you mean? The 96/97 manifolds look like a bunch of steel parts patch worked together
Tubular sounds more like the early fms headers
Let’s see the manifolds in question!
As long as they are a bolt in replacement I'll use the cast iron manifolds.Cast way better then the early welded ones

The cast manifolds that I pulled from the new engine are in great shape. They should work out fine!Cast manifolds waaaay better
Dorman sells a set for cheap but they will need some cleanup to be as good as the factory ones 99-01
Yeah, it's pretty funny that I have been driving around with it in the van for weeks. I have a 97 E350. It didn't even notice that the engine was back there.Gotta love vans! And 5.0s!!
Come down here and find one. There are usually some here or sale.I have a 2000 e350 chateau 7.3 turbo diesel with only 74k miles on it, 3.73 limited slip disc brake rear end! We love the van
My problem is the frame and body rotted out! I’ve been looking for a good donor van for two years!
