Exhaust Manifold Question

[aces74]

Looking at buying new spark plug wires, and depending on which manifold you have, the set is different (and a diff. price).

I've got a '98 5.0 Mounty, and I'm pretty sure I've got the "cast" manifold, but can't be sure until I see a picture or something confirming one way or the other... it'd be a shot in the wallet to order the wrong set...

Thanks

I believe the cast manifolds didn't start until 1999.

This is what the steel manifold looks like.

99% sure I've got casts, then....

Late year build 98's do have cast manifolds.

Sweet, looks like the casts are the ones that jack the price sky-high on the wires. Excellllllent. Ugh.
