    289 HiPo Exhaust Manifolds???

    Don, it looks like you've been doing some planning. Wish I could do what your doing, but I'd have a big mess. If you get this worked out, do you think that you would make up some sets? I wish I lived close so I could watch you put this together.

    289 HiPo Exhaust Manifolds???

    Centaurus 5.0, your right, they look very close. Do you have any more info on these manifolds? Lopo's??? Where would I purchase them? I have the P heads, so again I'm out of luck. Don't you agree that there isn't much to be done in the way of performance until I have headers?

    289 HiPo Exhaust Manifolds???

    Hey guys, since it doesn't appear that OBX or Torque Monster are available anymore, would the Scott Drake 289 HiPo exhaust manifolds physically bolt to my 2001 Explorer 5.0? I realize that the H pipes and exhaust will have to be remade to connect to the new manifolds. Do you...
