Early A's running magnum manifolds?

[chewy]

I just picked up some 340 log's for the 66 i hope they work.

I thought they widened out the steering wrap-around part of the drivers manifold on the 340's. It'd be interesting to know as the 340's flow better than the 273's.

340 left side hits a power steering gear not sure if they clear a manual gear.

340's WAY outflow the 273's check the id of the exhaust flange, its about 1/2 bigger on the 340. Hi-Po 340's wont fit '65 273 power steering without a little grinding as I recall 25 years ago. Early magnums are supposed to be even better per Ehrenburg without the mismatched driver /passenger 340 shapes. But you saw the Magnums on that 65, they fit with a little creative shimming, as everything else Mopar...Im in the market for some 92-93 logs, any sellers?

I do have a pair for sale castings 53006618 & 53006619 but shipping would be a deal killer for sure from Ottawa, Canada.

I have a set of 01 magnum manifolds of a Ram, If any one needs a set.

If you use Magnum manifolds the 1992/93 models had larger inside deminsions and flow considerably better. It doesnt matter if they are 5.2 or 5.9,all the same.

here is a late 92 93 dakota manifolds that I put in my 65 Dart has 318 IN IT.

 

[C130 Chief]

Did you move the column over? If so,how much?

 

[dart64gt]

didn't move the steering colulm raise the motor about a quarter of a inch on bolth sides and works great the u joints came out of 2 dakotas and I made them work and it steers real nice with no problems

Looks like the Magnum manifolds work with a little tweeking(like everyting has been on my 63).
If that's the case here's a thought.
Would you think that rear dump shorty headers for a Magnum Dakota or Ram, that hook up to the stock head pipes might work as well? Cheap!
Painted @ $220/set and lots of manufacturers, prices go up from there.
My hacked up tight tubes work, but the center dump is a nightmare trying to get around steering linkage. Spitz look a lot like what I did to my Headmans...restricted! Fenderwells may be a thought. Don't know if TTI fits with a 727 but sooo pricey. What ya'll think? Has any one tried?

 

[66Dartdriver]

so these magnum exhaust manifolds wont work on a 4speed with the zbar in place only a slave cylinder?

 

[racingsnake440]

Couldn't say if they would clear a 'z' bar or not - I put the hydraulic set up in when I converted it to a 4 speed.

I bought and eyeballed some of these on a 65 A body. They looked like they might be ok on driver side. Passenger side the tubes went out to far and you wouldn't be able to get it on because the inner fender is to close to the engine.

Thanks zhandfull! I figured somone looked at this before. I expected to here that the drivers side would be the problem side. I'm pretty handy with the TIG, think they could be modified to fit with out totally mutilating them? :violent1:
