Bristol 407 Manifold

[PaulusFryus]

Hello Bristoleans,

I'm posting because the passenger side manifold on my Bristol 407 has broken off where it joins the exhaust.
I'm struggling to find a replacement but I have read elsewhere in these pages of a stainless steel manifold option possibly made (or sold) by ACCS. However I can't find any details of this company online.
I would settle for anything that would get the car back on the road; whether this means replacing both manifolds with stainless or just finding a replacement for the broken one. The damage is such that it's not feasible to weld it though.

It's very bad timing with the summer upon us!

Any help gratefully received!

Best Wishes to All,

PF

They look good, would they fit?

on my car the LHS manifold the downpipe is on one end; not sure if it would clear?

More like this if that makes any sense sorry its such a bad picture.

It looks close, but not quite right.

Forgive me if I am telling you how to suck eggs:
Whatever course you take, the old manifold has to come off. Is it beyond repair? Cast iron is weldable, but it's an art not everyone can undertake.
I usually go onto the EBay.com (USA) to identify other vehicles (Dodge/Mopar/Plymouth/Chrysler) which utilise the same part, as there are usually lots of photos to aid identification. The downside of ordering from the US can be expensive postage and 2-3 weeks delivery. Repair might be the quickest and cheapest option and avoids modifications to the exhaust.
