Help! 292 exhaust manifold needed

I need a passenger side exhaust manifold for a 292 V8 Medium duty. The one on my ’63 step-side F100 has cracked and is spitting flames. All I can find thus far are throw-aways left in the rain for decades. Even those have bolt hole damage.
Would appreciate any help locating one.

Many Thanks!

Place an ad in our Marketplace? That’s the best place, and frees up the Forums for questions and such. Also, try Slick 60’s Trading Post, on FaceBook.

You could also get rid of those restrictive manifolds and go with a set of Ramhorn manifolds if you’re flush with cash.

Thanks, ibuzzard. I’ll check out the facebook lead. Would love ramhorns but my 3-tree **** is in the way for exhaust. I guess I would have to swap transmissions for a stick.

Not sure of your meaning, since your naughty word was censored. Are you saying your shift linkage would prevent using ram horn manifolds? I’d like to see some photos.

Nothing looks better on a Y-Block than period correct ram horns, they flow much better than the stock set-up with that crossover pipe, I’m told not far behind headers. Had them on my previous 59 F250.

But ya gotta have the Doh-Re-Mi. I think John Mummert still sells them?

Naughty word was “shift” but I misspelled it. Geez. My 3-on-a-tree transmission linkage would be in the way of an exhaust pipe for a ram horn on the driver side… I would think. When looking at it I dont see any clearance for the pipe. I sure wish I could do it. I think I would have to replace the 3-tree with a straight stick.

Here was I thinking I'd get ram horns one day....but not if they interfere with the shift linkages for the three-on-the-tree! Did John - or can someone - confirm they wont work with a column shift manual?

The exhaust pipes go far enough straight down from the center of the manifold then make a 90 degree turn back and go under the transmission crossmember. There is no way they should interfere with the shift linkage.
