I have a pair of 340 exhaust manifolds. I want to confirm what I have for sure before I advertise them for sale.
The right side is 2863549 with 04247
also has L10 It has no heat riser
The numbers are on the inside not on the upper like a set I have for a 69 340 Dart


The Left side is 2863553 and has 06197

Can someone clarify what they are correct for?
thanks

553 is a 1968-1971 340 Drivers side. The 549 is a 1968-1970 Passenger side. The only way to know the specific year or application would be the casting date codes, some do not have any.

My guess as it looks like it clearly has casting dates...

Casting dates
04247 = 4/24/1967
06197 = 6/19/1967

If those numbers are the casting dates (could be confirmed with pics) then yes they are approprite for a 68 340, June of 67 isn't really all that early, 68 production started in August 67.
