Iīve recently put a 63 starfire 394 in my 60 Super 88 and now I need some help. The exhaust manifolds I have for my engine is way too big for my engine bay so I canīt use them. I have a couple of homemade ones but I donīt like the look of them since they donīt look original.

These are the manifolds I got:

1 pair of these, cast number 587510 RH:

1 GM587193 LH:

2 Starfire manifolds, GM587793 LH

A couple of days ago I found this picture on my computer and realized that this 60 has a 61 or 62 394 with cast iron manifolds which fits! It almost looks like my GM587194 LH but not identical.

My question now is: Are all of my manifolds from 63-64 and his is a 61 or 62 manifold? Has he used a 61-62 driver side manifold on both sides and just reversed it on the passenger side?

Very thankful for answers, if there is original manifolds that fits in my car really really want them!

Looks like they used a LH manifold on the RS. I have never seen one like that LH Starfire one, but i knew there had to be. I'll be looking for one of those for mine possibly. Cant you use the 60 394 manifolds?

The 60 394 has another bolt pattern. If I knew that when I started the swap I think I wouldnīt have gone through with it. How does your 61 manifolds look. You have any pictures?
