stock v6 manifold prices and plans (Page 1/1)

it has recently come to my attention I've hoarded 3 of these and a stock non rusted out iron duke manifold. I don't actually need this right now and was thinking of tracing the flanges and gasket hole size onto some steel to make some flanges for my later personal use for equal length headers (or a poor attempt at them) regardless I'm not actually sure what uncracked manifolds are worth anymore since it seems they stopped cracking for the most part about 10 years ago and a few places offer much better ones for ~400 each

Are we talking exhaust manifolds?

The stock Iron Duke manifolds are basically worthless. There are brand new ones available online for $100 bucks, and you can even get the "88 Refresh Kit" which comes with a new oil diptstick, tube, gasket, heat shield, and manifold for $100 bucks. They pop up from time to time. The old Iron Duke manifolds are basically scrap metal at this point unless it's pristine.

For Fiero V6s... there's aftermarket options out there... believe it or not, way more options than there are for the Crown Victoria which they made a million of. Makes no sense to me... haha. But uncracked manifolds... I usually just see what's online and price it similar or just below if I'm interested in getting rid of it. If you hog them out (like they should have come), you'll get more on eBay of course.

I figured for the duke.
I haven't found any correct style 2.8 manifolds yet. so I guess I'll keep hoarding them until I get a decent pile so if anyone needs them I'll have them. probably also gonna try making some better designs later that can use the stock ypipe or just generally warp less
