Exhaust manifold clamp/pipe

[cfordman]

I need to have a test pipe made for my spare A motor. I have an old 8n exhaust manifold, can I take this to the muffler shop as I don't want to remove the A's manifold. if so I guess the pipe clamp is the same also. thks

I think the A pipe and clamp is bigger.

Common problem. If you put your general location into the post and/or your profile someone might PM you with a Model A manifold to loan. I just put a warped cracked one in the trash. My "guess" would be that since the 8N engine was less cubic inches the exhaust system would be a smaller diameter.

Manifolds for test stands don't have to be "perfect". I'm sure that among others in your local club you could come up with one that would be acceptable for this situation.

Our club recently built a test stand, and spare parts came from everywhere to make it up.
