Thanks sb, can you tell me if the center hole is threaded to accept the bolt for manifild?
Is ribbing thicker. I may want to smooth out the exhaust ports. is there enough meat to do so?
Thanks again.

I have one of these manifolds on my Dart. It does have the correct threads and a bit more rib than a stock manifold. The bad news is that the casting quality was not up to late '70s Chrysler quality control standards - there was casting flash and huge parting lines everywhere, including places that shouldn't have parting lines. I've heard of a few that had a port blocked with casting flash and had to clean it out. It's a pretty close copy of stock manifold off a later version with the feedback carburetor so wall thicknesses are the same.

One other note: 1A Auto checks to be sure the parts fit the vehicle listed. While normally this would be good customer service, they don't quite realize that this manifold fits a lot more applications than the ones they listed.

Ditto what these guys said, but I didn't have any of the problems...just lucky I guess. It came with the triangle washers, heat riser sheet metal and all the intake to exhaust bolts except the center one. I was doing well at last I heard.
