Would normally only be useful to someone restoring a low horse car; which just doesn't seem to happen often.

Or... to someone doing an engine swap that needed to figure out how to get clearance for steering, etc. Wish I had a set of these back when I was putting the Chevy motor in my 49 Studebaker truck. Now I have two sets!!! I ended up using something that works, but it was a tight fit.

Pair of low horse ram's horn exhaust manifolds, even at 2 inches, should be worth $100 plus the ride. Or, as you said, just post them on the PIF classifieds. I love seeing guys use my discarded parts. I don't have to make money on every deal. In fact I usually don't.

Post Manifolds...

Checking Colvin's book, some of the low-horse Corvette's used the 2" manifolds.

Thanks for the input.

I have a fish tote (remember where I'm from) full of the 2" ramhorns of all styles. I've never been asked about them ever.
