Default Reproduction exhaust/intake manifolds

What experiences has anyone had with the new reproduction exhaust and intake manifolds? Some parts houses sell USA parts, others sell 'imported' manifolds made from Ford prints. Comments?

Thanks,

Stew

I buy the manifolds from snyders or brattoms with no issues. When replacing them both they won't need to be plained. I l also like the ceramic coated exhaust manifold

I bought mine from Bratton's and used the old intake manifold and had them planed together.

I know of 3 guys that used a new exhaust manifold with the old intake and they fit well without planing them together.

I bought the set from Bert's. They also fit perfectly right out of the box...the gland rings even fit....
