[Amc-list] Anybody have a 1965 (one year only) Exhaust manifold for the 195.6 OHV?

["Bruce Griffis" <bruce.griffis@xxxxxxxxx>]

Okay, making progress on the snazzy exhaust system. Loosened the
exhaust manifold to exhaust pipe bolts. Soaked down all the exhaust
manifold to cylinder head bolts - loosened up three, snapped one, need
to figure two (might have to remove the linkage plate on the intake
manifold? Don't have a lot of clearance - or could try getting at them
from below).

Found a shop that will check out my cracked exhaust manifold to see if
they can weld it. It's cracked at the forward ear - so I'm not holding
my breath. Also have a '64 exhaust manifold as backup - but that would
require swapping out the downpipe for one with a three stud flange.

So: does anyone have a spare exhaust manifold for a 1965 Rambler
American with the 195.6 OHV engine? I'm thinking rather than welding
the one I have or making the '64 work - I'd like to go with a '65. The
'65 uses 2 studs to connect to the exhaust pipe. Older manifolds use
three studs.

Will happily pay check or paypal. Just want a non-cracked '65 exhaust manifold.
(and oh yeah, plenty of PB Blaster, a 6 point 9/16" box wrench and an
18" length of pipe really get things moving)
