'67 8-425 dual exh; Olds '68-69 8-455 dual exh.
IF ANYONE KNOWS WHERE ONE IS PLEASE LET ME KNOW.

 

Hey, did you buy that convert that was on sale on Ebay? You could do what I did and convert your existing manifolds. I don't have pictures but could describe to you how I did it if you wish.

 

HEY OLDSGUY,
I'VE HAD THIS CONVERTIBLE SINCE 90. I PARKED IT IN THE GARAGE IN 93 BECAUSE I WAS TO BROKE TO WORK ON IT. I'M FINALLY GETTING AROUND TO IT 12 YEARS, A MAIRRAGE & TWO KIDS LATER. I'LL SEND SOME PICS. IT,S NICE! P.S. LOVE ALL THE OLDS TALK.

I have one that needs to be cleaned up. It's not cracked but it has some pits. I can send you a photo.

 

Love those big B bodies. Yes, there was a real nice looking '69 Delta 88 convertable for sale on Ebay about four months ago, I think it was a florida car. There is a guy over at Realoldspower.com that owns a '69 Delta 88 hardtop like mine (only his is much nicer). He is in Canada. I really like the '68, '69, and '70 Delta 88s [img]smile.gif[/img] [img]smile.gif[/img]

 

Hi jdorour,
Sorry it took so long to reply. Yes please send me a photo.

im looking for the same left side manifold...if you stilll have one or know of any others...email me
blkmonday@aol.com
thanks

 

I have an original in good shape, but these are now reproduced! Check eBay, the repro's are on there pretty regularly. They are also available from Thornton Reproductions. Prices run in the $150 to $225 range I think. I'm told they are very nice too.

I'd sell the original for $125+ shipping. Before the repros came out they were going for $300 -$400. If anyone's interested, e-mail me at gfmorlock@hotmail.com

 

THANKS COPPER BUT YOUR A LITTLE LATE, I GOT ONE FOR $246.59 SET AT MY FRONT DOOR. IT LOOKS AND PERFORMS GREAT SO FAR.
YOU KNOW WHAT WOULD BE COOL THOUGH IS TO HAVE THE HEAT SHIELDS AND ALL THAT ORIGINAL STUFF.

I have a monifold for a 66 olds starfire. If is the same the the one u need just email me so we can get in contact. fredojr77@yahoo.com

 

there are some repro dual exhaust manifolds on ebay. shop around though because a couple guys have them and some are cheaper. i got one for my 66 dynamic 88 and it was an exact replica with the gm part#s and everything. it fit perfect and works awesome. finally somebody reproduced this hard to find overpriced part. im a budget builder myself (damn mortgage payments and 69 chevelle project car in the wings) i was thrilled to find it! look up my posts on realoldspower.com (under dynamic88builder) for a link and an email and phone # to the guy that i bought mine from. i recomend his repro. beware of buying prebent pipes on ebay i got stuck with a set that dont fit and mufflers that are to big. take it locally to a good muffler shop with someone into older cars and have them custom bend you a set. its not as pricey as you think and worth it not to get stuck with the wrong pipes (my leftside pipe was way off)....good luck
