I would jump at that chance. No Tube header clearance issues, no header noise, no burned gaskets, sign me up. Too band I got a LA block now.

the only problem is fitting them in the car
Actually they fit better and have more clearance than HP manifolds.

You'll need some extra horsepower just to overcome the weight.

How heavy ARE they? w flowing tubes & 3" outlet should flow good. I saw a pic of a big block in a 66 dart w them & it was an rb!. I have a mild 451 going into a 65 dart & am considering them but I want to run PS & I'm thinking they'll interfere . Any opinions on this??

MW manifolds will not fit in 66 and newer "B" body cars without cutting the firewall on the passenger side(RS). 62-65 "B" body cars had the engine located 1-1/2" more forward than 66 and later cars.
that's what I thought too. I asked this same question years ago on moparts and a few guys with 68-70 B bodies chimed in and said that they had to do some trimming on the firewall.
One guy posted a pic of a drag car charger with the nose off. it clearly showed that these were kissing the firewall.
i still love them though and If I had the fab skills I would love to put a set in my charger. so cool..

Maybe do the opposite swap of what the Early B-body guys have done for years? Swap in a 62-65 K-frame in a later B?
