L69 manifolds?

i swapped my 350 in for my lg4 over the summer, but i still have the stock lg4 manifolds. Im a little low on dough right now so headers are out of the question. BUT a nice pair of l69 manifolds from the JY are not. MY question is, will it be worth my time to put l69 manifolds on? ITs gonna be a long while before the headers so im lookin for a cheap way out for the time being. I've seen a few HO camaro's in the local yard with the manifolds still intact, so i know i could get them, what do you think???

You'll need the y-pipe too, unless you're getting one custom made. And I think the cat, and the cat-back are different too. And junkyards wont sell you a used cat, its a federal law. Or maybe thats just CA law.
