Just to set the record straight for anyone looking at the 6915 HKR, I have just had them fitted to my 73 GTS Q code, t-bar & they fitted up great.

Do they tuck up under the body well and not hang too low below the floor pan? I'll probably buy those and also call them to ask if they'd coat them shortly after getting them. I'll replace the collector flange with a V-band flange, those seal better than the regular type.

Yes being a 4 into 1 they do hang lower.... mine have about 4.5" clearance, but the car is lowered about 1.5".

Hey Don, hang on to your old 4v manifolds, apparently theres a market for them. You may be able to claw back some $.

Yes, tough call some people make to go to LT or stick with stock manifolds. My 73 to sell has stock manifolds, I'm resisting a tear down and refresh. It's a mild build and I'd like it to have better intake, carb, headers, and cam etc. My keeper will be built from scratch with my original 351C engine, I let go of the stock 4V manifolds in about 1980.
