Manifold flip?

Does anyone know if '77 400 exhaust manifolds can be flipped upside down and bolted back on? Just inherited a pair of new 3116 cat turbos and thinking about doing a cheap installation just for fun. any help would be great thanks.

No they will not. The bolt holes will line up but the ports will not. Awsome idea though.

the ports are off but not a whole lot, i just folded up a set of manifold gaskets and pitched them today. they're still in the bag, i can unfold them and see how bad the mismatch is? actually i was going out there now anyway...

Thanks for the info, they are off by a fair amount. I have 2 options a 400 and a 460 motor that i have so i will use the 460 as the ports line up a lot closer. If i blow the 460 up then i will fabricate the pipes for the 400 manifold. thanks for the help guys.
