Fagerlund Posted August 27, 2009 Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 I am putting a 318 in my P15, can someone help me with exhaust manifolds, what works? Do I have to buy headers and modify it. I am going to use my old stearing box if possible, so I want to do as small changes as possible. Please help me with pictures and info what to buy. The engine and trany is from 1985.

dezeldoc Posted August 27, 2009 Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 Welcome, try the search function at the top of the page this has been covered many times on here, you will need 64-73 A body manifolds, the early ones work the best but are getting hard to come by. it is a pretty easy swap and almost bolt in.

Fagerlund Posted August 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 (edited) Thanks for the fast answers. The guy i talked to in Sweden told me that he was shore that the manifolds did not fit. I take your word that it will fit and try to find it. Thanks again // Richard Edited August 28, 2009 by Fagerlund Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg g Posted August 27, 2009 Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 You will still need to offset the engine to the passs side by 4 centimeters or so, this will help give you enough clearence for the steering box. when you get everything put together the offset will not be noticed except by the most critical eye. Even the factory did on some otthe muscle car era models. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Cipponeri Posted August 28, 2009 Report Share Posted August 28, 2009 Fagerlund, Yoou should try PlyDo for their engine mounts, they sell them off set in order to run your standard steering, also their cross member will make your job a lot easier.
