A lot of great ideas! My car has the outlet behind #6. I can get my hands on a 5-6 manifold as well. I had thought about seeing if there was a 2-3 outlet intake because what Andy did makes perfectly good sense and gives you a true dual. The bolt-on kit that rustyhope has seems to be the most straight forward and least invasive way to get the dual. I used a guy years ago to split Chevy manifolds and also to repair head cracks on British cars. He did it proper by heating to red in and induction furnace and then welded it and I never had a single problem. He has gone on though, and the owners now don't follow the proper heating procedure and the results therefore leave something to be desired! What is everybody's thoughts on mufflers? Looking to get that mellow throaty burble!

Group, I have a 50 Wayfarer coupe (230 flathead) that I have owned a couple of years now (resurrected from WV) and putting it back together and updating using all period correct speed and custom add-ons. Not to worry, it's all bolt-on and I'm not cutting anything! I just finished putting in an overdrive and am now looking to split the manifold on it. Any quick tips on splitting the manifold, does anybody have a split manifold out there or does anybody have a stock manifold for cheap that I could use to cut the outlet off of? I've attached a photo of the Wayfarer for discussion. Great car, a ton of fun to drive. Fluid drive with overdrive. Oh yeah! Thanks Eric Swanger Huntersville, NC
