fj55 headers (1975)

[miletwo]

I need to get either a set of headers or a replacement manifold for my pig. Anybody have thoughts on the man-a-fre headers? They're local to me so they'd be the easiest to pick up. JTO also sells some but I think they're the same part. Downey says they no longer make them.

The MAF 6>1 headers are hard to seal. Go for 2 piece if you can. The 6>1s are good only if you have a PTO winch.

2 piece?

I was told the 2piece headers will not fit in a FJ55. Is this true?

I really liked the $OR 2 piece headers, but their prices are way bigger than my expected performance gains over the 6-1.

Input appreciated.

I purchased a set of Man-a-fre's 6-1 headers for my '70 pig and slapped them on and they had horrible leaks. Brought the rig to my local shop and they seated them properly and I have not had a problem in three years. They work well and have not given me any problems. Beleive it or not...
