Where can you get the best deal on a set of manifolds for a 8.1 mercruiser anyone know of any surplus stores . Jeff

If you're looking for the stock manifolds, mine are for sale. They've got one season on them (about 45 hours in freshwater). I might also be able to include the remote oil filter bracket that mounts on the port manifold. I'm not sure if I'm going to use it or mount my oil filter somewhere else. Raylar is currently using my manifolds to take measurements of where the oil filter bracket, ECM support, etc. attach to the stock manifolds, and transfer that information to where brackets would need to be attached to the Bassett Tri-Y headers he is developing.

Prices I found are $451 each for the manifolds, but couldn't find a price for the risers. I'll sell the complete pair for $300. PM me if interested.

The stock stainless steel risers about $650 each. I had to replace & go 2" higher. Will sell pair (2) $600.

i have 2 sets of stock manifolds and risers with silent choice to boot if you are interested!

Where were you guys just a couple weeks ago? I just bought 2 sets and spent weeks trying to find them.

mine were listed in the classifieds but got ZERO hits so I let it expire. LOL. they are taking up space on my shop floor so I am ready to part with them..I am enjoying my E-Tops so far.

Sorry about that.... Just fixed it..... You can reach me at my screen name at the yaahhooo site.....

Same thing I did. I've posted and even listed on ebay. Nada! Figured no one needed stock risers. Marcruiser listed pair near $1400 and I paid more than that to get 2" more height. My engine was installed at the limit. When removing boat the marina was too lazy to remove water from bilge and stepped into me boat allowing water to enter the engine and seize it up. In the meantime I had a heart attack. When I was able I contacted Mercury and they replaced it under warranty with a long block but I had to agree to put higher risers on. Now the boat has been on it's trailer since 2007 with a brand new 496mag.

I dont need the S choice , what were you asking?
