eBay 56 dual exhaust?

There is a nice looking 56 for sale on eBay which happens to be Meadow Green (originally black).
https://www.ebay.com/itm/1956-Ford-F...IAAOSwdU1cwvTA



My question is, if this is a 292 Yblock with stock steering what exhaust manifold did they use to eliminate the crossover pipe with out hitting the steering box? Or without that big Shepard's crook bend you see sometimes?

Kevin, not that I'm interested in doing this, but I didn't think they worked either. I thought the only way to get dual exhaust was to do the big bend thing or Ram's Horns.

I have a 48 F1 with a 64 292 in it, will the "Ram Horn" exhaust manifold clear the steering box?

The driver side car manifold won't clear but using a pass side car manifold on the driver side of a truck works

Yeh, yeh. I know! And it is the right color. But my wife said no more.

I was thinking the other day, if I ever get a 53 or 56, I would want a Custom Can or Deluxe Cab instead of a bare bones Standard Cab.
