Default SBF 2V Intake Manifolds 1960-1970's

Are the original manifolds worth anything, or should I put them out for recycling.

Can't comment about the cast iron Windsor intake manifolds, but the 4 barrel cast Iron Cleveland intakes flow an impressive C.F.M. - the dead weight is a bit of a killer though.


Both the Windsor and Cleveland cast iron exhaust manifolds are pretty average - both are prone to having the right manifold crack.

Cheers

The only Ford inlet manifolds that I have found to have some value are the 4 barrel large port square bore ones as well as the early (1973 & 1974 cast date) small port 4 barrel manifolds.

You might find some people interested in the XD & XE era ones (to match ESP's and the likes) but not really worth that much. Anything two barrel and late XC 4.9 manifolds are scrap value only.
