FE Exhaust manifold ?
Random question...I know that there wasn't much meat on the m/fold to engine mating surface and usually it gets machined down to a nub usually but in the later castings from Ford, did they ever increase that amount so one could get a bit more life outta them ??

Notice that the left is the same 1965/67.
Notice that the right is not.
Notice all the right side part number updates.
Notice all the left side part number updates 1968/72.
Now my random question is: Why were these part numbers updated?
What did Ford do different with these manifolds?
