I have a 49 F1 with a inline 226 and the exhaust manifold is cracked at the exhaust flange. Looking for a nice original replacement.

Welcome to the forum. That manifold in good condition is very hard to find. They do become available once in a while. Somewhere on the forum is a picture and write up where someone fabricated a sleeve to go around the downpipe of the manifold and attached it to the exhaust pipe. Again, welcome to the forum and don't be discouraged. Try the usual places, ebay, cl, local fish wrappers, etc. Expect to pay heavy $$ for a nice one.

 

TWO different 226 exhaust manifolds:

8HW-9426 .. Exhaust Manifold / Obsolete

1948/51 226 I-6 F3/F5 Parcel Delivery & F5/F6 Cab Over Engine / 1950/52 254 I-6 F6 Cab Over Engine.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
8MTH-9426 .. Exhaust Manifold / Obsolete

1948/51 F1/F7 226 I-6 & 1950/53 254 I-6 (except as noted above).

No Ford dealer or obsolete parts vendor has either one.
