Midwest member had passenger side manifold for his 403 break and is effecting camping plans.

Anybody know of any in the midwest? He knows headers maybe the answer but hoping to get a used manfold to be back on road quick.

I am not sure of a source for a used one... but if a new one is an option, Cinnabar should have them (in Michigan) complete with the copper gaskets if you have a way to get it (I'm pretty sure they can overnight it). Pricier that way though.

If it's the same as the 455 I've got one you can have. It has a crack that's been welded but worked okay for me.

Not the same as a 455. Jim- good to know, but shipping at this point will take too long. Was hoping to find one within a days drive of des moines, or we have a company in midwest that can ship about anything in 5 state area overnight for $5.

He is not stranded, just does not want to cancel his weekend plans.

Windy Hill is pretty proud of that manifold. Unfortunate because they are just down the road.

Parts are what they are. When you figure what it costs to make the mold
patterns, then set up the molds, melt the iron and pour it, flash it,
machine the threads, and gasket surfaces, distribute it, store it, pay
overhead costs on it for 35 years, it seems cheap at twice the price. The
fact that it is even still in stock is amazing to me. But, there is still
headers from several sources available. Bet they don't exactly match up
with your exhaust flanges, though. So there is another delay and expense.
Week end is looking closer all the time.

G'day,

I do a search for GMC's and parts daily and over the years have built up a nice group of spares at a reasonable cost. When I can no
longer drive my GMC I'll sell them and make a few bucks.

Sorry I can't help out with the manifold, but "lqqkatjon" can you tell me more about the company in the midwest that can ship about anything in a 5 state area overnight for $5?

Speedy delivery service. Mn, nd,sd, iowa, wisconsin, parts of missouiri and illionois.

http://www.speedeedelivery.com

Most packages I send are $5-$6. Shipped a tire to nd for like $9
Very cheap and almost all areas are next day, maybe 2 days here.

That http://www.speedeedelivery.com/ service sounds great. I'd love to find a similar service that includes Oklahoma & Texas. Thanks for the info.

Hope a 403 manifold turns up for the midwest member in time for their trip.
