312 Y Block left exhaust

I've looked at several posts,and most prefer the ram horn exhaust. That is not in my program! I had to remove the standard cross over exhaust. Normally not found on the 312 Y Block. Due to the three on the tree on my F -100. Mom, likes that with the bench seat, And hates the floor shift. I like three on the tree also. My issue is my stock engine Fuel pump. Okay go electric, but I just don't care for that. So my right exhaust was moved to my left side. Blocking off the cross over, and using it to run my exhaust piping out the front in a 180 degree, and routing it out, and by the shift linkage,and brake system. Now I can use air Conditioning installation, and or power steering Toyota style. And still keep my three on that tree with a horn mod, over developed. Might work,might not. My issue is my fuel line routing, ordered a stainless line from Mid 50 in Arizona. It did not fit way to long. So far I've used some fittings to reroute the lines to my eddlebrock carb, had to remount my ignition coil. Because the carb fuel inlet line is on the right side. My Holley fuel line entered on the left,was originally on my truck,but overhaul parts we're none. So I went to the eddlebrock. Has any body tried to do this mod? I seen a 1954 F-100 that did this ,year's ago,but did not recall how he delt with the engine driven fuel pump. AJ

I'm one of the 119 and I honestly didn't understand your question. Maybe it was all the mumble-jumble in the lengthy post?
Please specify right-pass side?
i recommend a car dual exhaust pass side manifold on the pass side and putting a car dual pass side manifold on the driver side

it works very well and you don't have to block off anything
