Need Help finding Exaust Manifold
Hi Guys, I spent all morning searching for a left side exaust manifold for my 66 f100. It has a 352 The casting # is C3SE9431B. I found some that will work if i modify the pipe, but dont want to do that. This is what i know about it, The Thing takes a 2 in donught, and not the 2.25 in one does not use that flapper thing after the manifold, I hope that someone can help me "It's the only thing keeping it off the Road. Send PM if you know where to get one or have one you would sell. Thanks for Help

I checked every salvage yard in town, I searched through more than 500 pcs and 6 different places. If I have to modify anything It just makes sence to put headders on it. I would realy like to just bolt on and go. anyway headders are a hassel! IMHO

Good luck finding them. My left side manifold went out, and the only place i found one was at NAPA. They only sold the left side aswell, and had just one in Indiana (im in nevada). Took them 2 weeks to get it to me, and cost me 300 bucks. 
but getting headers and refiting the exhaust would have been more.. i got raked.

The left side manifold is the same for 352/360/390 in cars and trucks. The right is diferent for cars and trucks. The right car manifold will work but you have to nick the frame to get it to clear. The Ehxhaust manifold heat riser (flapper thingy) is built in on some manifolds and is a seperate piece on others. I have one new in the box if that is all you need. But you can operate without it. EBAY is a good source and several vendors sell the left manifold new.

William thanks for that info, I did not know they sold them new. Which Vendors?
And how much. From what I know there is 3 different ones - One that has 2 inch out with donught and one with 2 1/4 inch outlet and one that is flat across at outlet. Maby there is others ? So far that is the only ones i have seen, The one that is flat takes the flapper. SO if you have more info Please tell. Thanks Bill W

C3AZ-9431-D fits 1963/64 Galaxie; 1963/67 T-Bird
This manifold is the one Bill W has on his truck. C3SE = 1963 T-Bird. It's also the same as the two L/S manifolds my two 1963 Galaxies. But, it's NOT the same manifold as the one on my '65 F100, and btw...I'm the original owner, so I know it's correct. These manifolds don't use a donut, but a flat gasket = C1SZ-9450-A
1965/67 F100/350's (and 73/74 F100) use: C5TZ-9431-A;
1968/75's use C8TZ-9431-B (exc 1973/74 F100);
There are two different 1976 manifolds: Before serial # A50,001 = D5TZ-9431-B; after Serial # A50,001 = D5TZ-9431-C
C5TZ-9431-A uses a donut gasket that's 2.32 I.D, = C5TZ-9450-A
C8TZ-9431-B uses a donut gasket that's 2.28 I.D. = C6TZ-9450-B
D5TZ-9431-B & C uses a donut gasket that's 2.25 I.D. = C6TZ-9450-C
These trucks are old and have had may PO's, so just because the manifolds are on there, it doesn't mean they're correct.
As original, the heat riser valves are on the right side only.

Thanks William, Knowing that it is from a galaxie or a Tbird will help, BUT seems that will make them harder to find? What are my Options? Headers? I was going to buy some today, I really dont want to, Just think that is my only choice. Some more input would help. Thanks Bill W

If unable to locate, there are few companys on ebay who advertise they carry the manifolds. Suggest run search under 'ford truck manifold' under ebay search engine and should find them, 'Direct Automotive', Car Parts Wholesale', to name couple, not familiar with any of them.

Give him the casting number off the manifold.
Also try Larry's T-Bird parts in SoCal, and there's a shop in the Phoenix area that specializes in Galaxies. Think it's called Manti's or something close to that.
Bill's Auto Repair in Orange, CA will prolly have dozens...
