Today the exhuast manifolds arrived from Potomac salvage. I am attaching a picture of the stock CL500 exhaust manifold which is also common to most other applications such as E class S class ect. and the C43 AMG exhaust manifolds. You will see that the C43 manifolds look like our Crossfire manifolds except for the extra pipe. When I compare closely the manifold exits in the exact same location as the Crossfire and the mounting flange to the down pipe is the same size as the V6 manifold. The piping on the V8 is a little larger and seems to neck down to the exit flange. On the V6 the pipe is smaller and then necks up slightly to the flange. With these manifolds I intend to be able to bolt right to the existing exhaust.
