Wanted: C-15A Exhaust Manifold......

[Chris Preston]

'Afternoon All,

Our Museum's C-15A CMP (Ashton Armoury Museum - https://www.facebook.com/ashtonarmourymuseum/) has a cracked/damaged beyond repair Exhaust Manifold, and we're in need of a new one......that's serviceable! Specifically, we need a Manifold for a Chev 6 Cyl 216 or 235ci engine. The exhaust down pipe is in the middle of the Manifold and faces straight down.

Does anyone on this forum have a spare in good condition they can part with or know of a source for one?

Cheers,

important to know wether it is a 216 or a 235 for the intake rings. I can probably find you one.

Hi Harry,

Believe it's a 235 engine. Thanks for the assist.

Cheers,

Chris

‘Morning Harry,

I’ve confirmed that the engine is a Chev 235 Stovebolt 6. The Manifold Outlet hangs straight down, and it’s a “truck” manifold.

Cheers,

Chris

I have three identical sets but they all are not straight down but angled slightly to the rear. It would need a modification to the exhaust pipe.

Hi Harry

Is my assumption right that the rear angled manifold is for the 261?????

[Harry Moon]

pretty much all the engines around here are 235 with just one 261, the only straight down ones I've come across were on 216's.
