WTB: MB Exhaust Manifold

Post by Michael O. » Mon Jan 28, 2019 7:21 am

Looking for an MB exhaust manifold with A 659 marked on the front face as shown and without the dimples on the arms. Thanks in advance!

I noticed the "split" lockwasher, they best not be used on exhaust manifolds, the high heat causes them to lose their temper.

I have one with those markings. PM or e-mail me if you would like photos to verify it is what you need. I'm not quite sure on the dimples you were referring to. Thanks.

Here’s one installed on an early MB motor. Notice, there are no dimples (aka nipples) on the arms.

best chance to see a vintage exhaust manifold is on a WWII vintage PE-95. Many are still intact.

I'll look at my PE-95 one to see if it matches your description.
