Stock manifold any good?
If I want to stay with manifolds instead of going to headers. is #10108437 a good choice? I know that is the one from the right side, I don't know the number off hand to the left side but they are both off the same car which is a 89 Formula 350. By the way, they will be going on a mildly modified carbereuted 350 .

Those are the best manifolds any 3rdgen came with, but still suck even compared to the worst tube headers out there.

Thanks for the info. Just for verification, is that manifold number 10108437 correct for an 89 formula 350? I was told it was, actually, they were in the back seat of the 350 formula, but, could it be out of a 305 tbi car?

It seems to me--someone please correct me if I'm wrong--that the HO (L69) cars already have the bigger manifolds as well as y-pipe, and intermediate pipe. If so, swap them to the 350.
