Why not attach water to the blades and create a water park?

Hey All, Long time no hear. Working way too much these days. Desperately looking for an exhaust manifold for my 65 w/352 driver side busted an ear off. or any good advise on what to do. Don't want to go to headers. Thanks for any info and ya'll stay safe.

Problem Solved, Picking up my kid today and his friends dad had an old ford in the yard. I asked him if he knew where i could find a manifold and he takes me over beside the garage and reaches down into the weeds and comes up with the exact one I needed just have to drill and tap one of the studs. Couldn't believe my eyes. Now I can continue.

Well, almost perfect. The only problem I have now is the manifold is off a car. I'll have to extend my pipe another 2 inches to make up for the valve not being used but that's not a big deal. Cleaning 44 years of gunk off the motor is the sucky part of this whole deal. lol

Yeah, gonna be a bit messy...but I bet the old mill will be running a little cooler after the gunk is cleaned off. For some reason I do not understand, but my vehicles always seems to run better after being ran through the car wash... especially the ones with the gals in bikinis.
