Water Coming out of Exhaust Manifold??
I pulled the 383 out of my 69 Dart last night. To get it out I had to remove the Drivers side exhaust manifold because it wraps around the steering column. When I pulled the motor I was tilting the front up and the back down and all of a sudden water started pouring out of the next to the last bolt hole that held the exhaust manifold on. [][] Is this normal? I've always worked on Fords before so I will probably be asking a lot of questions as I restore this 69 Dart.
Thanks

Also, someone told me the original exhaust manifolds off of my 69 Dart GTS 383 are worth some money on Ebay? Shoudl I sell and get some Hooker Ceramic Coated Headers instead?

If you're going to sell them, sell them soon. Shipping charges at UPS are going up 10% as of 1 Jan 2005 and others are expected to follow. Headers/exhaust systems are a pain in the butt to pack and ship, that's why I still have my stock exhaust off of my SRT-4 in my garage.....[:@]

I've been wanting to get a set of those Edlebrock RPM heads for my Roadrunner, but I need to get the body and paint taken care of first.[:@]

I'm another satisfied Edelbrock head customer. I put them on the 440 in my Belvedere. The performance is great! I had one hitch with mine. I bought the heads when they first came out and had a set of vintage Doug Thorely headers ceramic coated to use with them. Because of the angled plug holes, I couldn't get #6 plug into the hole past the header tube. The fender wells from Doug's Headers solved the problem and gave me a little more Super Stock attitude under the hood. TTI came out with their under chassis headers to fit the Edelbrock heads just a few months later. Hey, fc7gtx, how do you like the TTIs? How was the fit and installation? I love your GTX. Good choice of wheels for the '70 body and color.
