If you don't get some pictures by next weekend send me a reminder. I can help with that but due to my work schedule it will be Friday or Saturday before I can snap some photos.

Yes john I need your help, pics please and can this be done with 350 4bl? Everything out there is for 400 or 455, I know the 350 had a similar set up from snorkel down to passenger side exhaust manifold with heat riser tube, I think!

Well I surprised myself! Walked out in the garage and found it right off. Here's some pictures. Let me know if you need any measurements anywhere. John

There's a shroud on the exhaust manifold. It has a raised lip that the short curved pipe fits over. These are old pictures and I'm not sure if any of these are correct for 1968, but it would look something like this. One of the 1968 guru's will have to speak up and let you know what shroud is correct. John
