Title: 1970 Exhaust Manifold Question
Post by: erik70rt on July 20, 2017, 03:56:59 PM
What is the difference between the 2899970 manifold and the 2899879 manifold?  I have one parts book says I should have a 970, and another book says I should have 879.  I bought a pair of manifolds out of a 1970 Road Runner and the RH side had the 879.  Which should it be?  I am assuming the 879 that I have.

My 1970 RT/SE has 2899879 on the passenger side and 2951865 on the driver side. They are the original manifolds. Hope this helps.  :cheers:

If I remember correctly I think there was a mistake in one of Galen's white books that was confusing everybody....but 879's and 865's is what you want. :alan2cents:

Yes, the manifolds are engine specific, not model specific.  :cheers:
