Looking for an exhaust manifold to put on my '95 super sport with GT40. Went to replace the riser gasket and once I had the manifold off I found a hairline crack on the underside of the manifold, so it's toast.
Let me know what you have. I expect shipping will be $$.
Thanks!

Never mind! I Found one at watercraft sales in 3 lakes for $100 so I'm all set.
It is a take out from an early '80s ski nautique. Based on the newer style metal riser gasket it looks like it was a "new" manifold for the camp boat in the not so distant past. A little wire brush action and heat resistant paint touch up and it'll be ready to go back on.

Kyle,
Don't scrap your old manifold yet since it may be repairable. Some members have been running on epoxy crack repairs for years!
BTW, next time you're shopping at the HD, take a walk down to lumber, see if I'm working and introduce yourself. It's always a pleasure to meet a fellow CCfan member!

Thanks Pete! Will do! Were you there this afternoon by chance?
I will save the old manifold. I just have to extract some broken riser bolts.
Thanks,
Kyle

Kyle,
I opened the store this morning and then got off at 3:30.
