Wanted Cast exhaust manifolds

[kildea]

I'm looking for a set of the cast manifolds, there were some here a while ago but apparently no more.
I'm curious to have a look at a set, so please let me know if you have any, I'll need them shipped to Massachusetts.

i have a set from a 95 sc400, 80 shipped.

sounds great - just to confirm though - these are the cast ones, not tubular?

I am looking for either the cast iron ones (not found on u.s. cars) - or if you have a set the psuedo-tri-y ones from a gs400.
I can post pics of both for confirmation - if you want to compare with what you have.

the ones on top are cast iron, there is one mani in the pictures that is the standard tubular (NOT cast) variety from sc400's around the junkyards here:

in addition i've been looking to get my hands on a set of the tri-y ones from the vvt cars, like these:

"The VVT-I motors have cast manifolds"


... this is certainly not always correct, though it may sometimes be the case. they appear to have been an aus/nz market thing - at least the only references i've found have been from that side of the planet:

The two early 1UZs I fitted into 4Runners were 1990 (LS400) and a 1991 (Celsior) both had the cast manifolds. All the rest ('92>) have been tubular.
'95> had two piece manifolds.

Do you have access to any more of them? If so, how much shipped to Massachusetts?
