looking to fit a set of stainless tubular manifolds to my 4.6 gems thats going into the 90 shortly,

are the ones for the 3.9 suitable as i cant seem to find a set for a 4.6?

also is there one brand that stands out above the rest?

I have the full rimmer bross SS system - its quite good, with a great sound, but kit could be more comprehensive for the price (fittings are minimal. The headers tarnish as they cannot be made out of highest quality SS (apparantly due to possible cracking with heat). This is a shame - not sure if this is true with other headers. Hanman headers are difficult to fit to a 90 on the near side espesially.

All the heads are the same on the RV8 as far as exhaust ports go, so 3.9 headers will fit a 4.6 engine.

You might have to experiment to see if they will foul on any chassis crossmembers.
