340 manifolds can anyone identify

[Surfcuda]

I have a set of 340 exhaust manifolds that were thrown in on a car deal I made. Can anyone provide any info on them by the photos? 🏝

Rob,

This is what I was talking about..... WTB - 1970 340 Exhaust Manifolds (pair)

 

[Surfcuda]

After looking closely at them I found some numbers.

Those are the good ones, correct for 68-70 A/E-bodies. They look like they will clean up nicely without much if any pitting and the RH manifold still has the heat riser. People routinely ask $750-1000 for those, but they do sell for less if you’re patient.

Thank you Floyd, appreciate you sharing your MOPAR knowledge 🏝

I had them blasted to see what I was working with. Very impressed with the condition these manifolds were in. They were in a shipping container since 1980. Will have them Ceramic coated next. Ready for the coming Spring/Fall Fling in Van Nuys. Thanks again for the info on these L-2 Manifolds 🏝

Your #2 cylinder flange looks like it has a crack in it?

 

[Surfcuda]

Good eye Jeff K. I noticed that after I posted the photo. Old eyes, the photo clearly shows the hairline. So when I do sell them it will be in person with full disclosure as it can be repaired. 🏝

The right guy can easily repair it and make the crack disappear....but it's got to be the right guy. I've seem people weld aluminum cans together....Perfect set of manifolds for someone doing a "right" restoration on the "right" car.
