Sorry, the manifolds are long gone. I've had the headers on there for quite some time. The headers I have came from Banks. They are known for their diesel stuff, but make some products for gas vehicles too.

Banks, L&L, and Doug Thorley are the only brands I know that makes them for the 460 in our body style Ford. I didn't see them on the Banks website, you may have to call them. If I remember right, they were around $1500, headers, y-pipe and 4" single exit exhaust behind the rear tire, but you can buy them separate. I bought them as one of the power package deals. Zero problems with them, Y-pipe is a little tight with the deep trans pan I have on there. No leaks or cracks...they have been on there since '03 or '04 can't quite remember.

Jstab, how many miles on yours? I'm wondering how mine will hold up as the miles increase...I'm right ay 107k. No engine or trans problems and the AC will freeze me out of there. Axles, front end and drive shafts are basically brand new, as I completely rebuilt all of them about 2k miles ago.
