don't think so in fact,, Not recently discovered but 16 years ago we tried them on the first V8 we installed . They look a lot alike and while they are close, they don’t fit properly against the rear of the engine compartment and contact the heat shields and the factory exhaust isn’t close to where the manifold flanges are so it won’t bolt up..
