Highboy owners.

Post by btalley63 »

Hello All,
I’ve bought a 76 highboy. The installed headers are junk. My neighbor has a stack of FE exhaust manifolds.

Can anyone tell me if the stock FE manifolds on a highboy had the exhaust from the drivers side exiting in the rear or in the middle of the manifold? I’m not currently with the truck but I suspect with the standard transmission linkage, the exhaust exits in the middle of the manifold.

Thanks for the info!

I think the center exit manifold is a 391 FT item,my 352 exits the rear.....the 391's can be made to work on an FE....perhaps someone else knows how and can elaborate on this for you
