ddog437 Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 Hello all, I recently got a bad exhaust leak at the seam of my manifold, it was abused by the previous owner and has rust and high heat epoxy on it (hes an idiot). So I am looking for a used exhaust manifold, my car is a 5 speed, passes smog, and I need to keep it passing smog. If anyone has one, or knows where I can get one online (not headers), then I would greatly appreciate it, thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
csorgenf Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 I have one from a 75 280z. I believe it is stamped N42. Let me know if interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xnke Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 There are some bolt-in smog approved headers out there, MSA sells some of them. If you can't find anything else, don't count the headers out just because you have to pass smog. They are pricy, though, for someone who just needs a manifold.

ddog437 Posted July 22, 2009 Author Share Posted July 22, 2009 csorgenf: My car is 1978, not sure if it makes a difference, although my car is fuel injected and I am pretty sure the 75's models had carbs, although I am not the most knowledgeable so if I am wrong correct me. theguppies: Glad to hear you live in San Jose, I reside in Santa Cruz, so I could possibly come look at the manifold, would it fit with my car? As I said, I am not the most knowledgeable, I am just looking for a manifold becuase they are cheap and I just need a quick fix for the time being. How would I be able to tell if my car can use a n42 or n47 manifold? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott_M67 Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 If you have a '78 with the stock head you need a N47 exhaust manifold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
