with a stock type manifold like that ,it will hurt you in two ways.like mildthunder said.they will " drink water" and will not flow well.a cheaper [better] choice would be a stainless marine manifold set up.this system will outlast headers hands down and will almost flow as well as headers.

IMO never buy used headers period !!!!! I would rather see you buy less expensive new headers. Too much riding on the line and then you will blame the guy that sold you the headers when you pop your pride and joy (motor). I would suggest people buy there
headers first and then build your motor second. Once the money is gone on upgrades on the motor then there is the feeling of (I cant afford another $4500 on new headers). Worst mistake you can make IMO

Someone recently posted a set of Stainless Marine manifolds and risers for $900. The SM exhaust would be a good choice as long as wet exhaust is good with the cam. Next choice for the price would be a set of Gil's...
