1970 Correct Craft Mustang with Ford 289 has interceptor exhaust manifold that needs to be replaced. Difficult to find. Any suggestions for alternative manifolds/riser that will fit under engine cover without alteration along with dealer/manufacturer contact info would be greatly appreciated.

i would measure your clearance and post. maybe somebody with a 302 in your model can measure the clearance. the pcm center riser manifolds
(best price is j.a.chamberland) are just shy of the top of the breather on my 72 with the 351.

i have one good and one bad 'riser' for the interceptor manifolds if you decide to stay stock.

Have you tried Blue Ridge Marine 800 621-2215. Paul is really helpful. If you stay stock he may have used available.

Glen-l carries Glenwood aluminum logs and risers. They're light and compact. Try this link: http://www.glen-l.com/inboard/0755.html

Tryan, would that stock riser happen to be good on the port side?

Upon closer inspection, I think that the logs should bolt up to either side and I can swap ends, therefore, tryan if you are willing to part with your parts and they are what I need, I'd like to talk about it.

Greg, I've got a 70 Mustang also with an Interceptor 302, under the diaries section. I replaced the originals with some Barr Marine aluminum center risers (I don't know that Barr is still around) but they hit the top corners of the engine box. However, I've got the old curvy style engine box which has less clearance. See Howard Lane's red 70 Mustang in the diaries with the Glenwood alum pieces that 'cisom' mentioned. They are really nice and I'm forced to see them in person way too often every time he pulls up to my dock. You really don't have to have risers if you don't want as it probably didn't come with them, and that will save a buck or two. Like Tom, 'tryan', I've got a set of the older aluminum embossed Interceptor manifolds. Are your originals cast iron or the alum ones?
