Magnum Exhaust Manifolds in an A Body
Here is my experience with the early A-body exhaust (1965, 1966). Power steering must go. I tried the 273 exhaust manifolds, and the drivers side exits rear and points forward to interfere with the power steering gear. My fix is to install a manual gear box, and I can use the 273 manifolds, but now I am able to use the mid 90's Magnum exhaust manifolds. Some mods had to be made to the engine compartment, but what a difference it must make. Headers for this application are over $800, so the magnum factory manifolds will work just fine for me! Will let you know how it works when I run it.
