GLM Aluminum Manifolds for SBC
Does anybody have any feed back on these for a SBC? Ill have about 375HP on this motor and curious if the GLM aluminum manifolds will be sufficient for this application... I already have some Stainless risers to match my stock manifolds just need a manifold upgrade and with being on a tight budget with a baby on the the way... Im sure some of you understand...
Thanks for any feedback!

Been using them with no problems since 09' on my 385ci SBC
475hp. I'm sure the better manifolds and headers would help more but for the poor mans budget, they work fine.

You get a lot of bang for the buck...if you are strictly a fresh water boater. I'm not...so all things considered I went with CI Merc OEM...2: sets A~Z for my 400 HP 355's under $1K.
I asked several people in this area that told me that even with flushing and anode replacement don't expect more than 2: years use.

I noticed that the new style Mercruiser iron wasn't that much heavier and I was able to by manifolds, risers, bolts and gaskets for 2 engines for less than $1000...no brainer for me.
