Hi everyone, I cracked my RH exhaust manifold by over tightening it with a performance gasket. What other years and models will fit in it's place.

Will one from another ford like a Fairlane, Torino, Galaxie ect. fit if it has an FE engine.I have a 66 Tbird with the 428 engine.

Any suggestions and info is greatly appreciated.

A Galaxie manifold may fit. The Fairlane/Torino types probably do not. If you must use a gasket, the stock sheet metal type is the only correct one. If that is not available, you are better off not using any gasket at all. The manifold must be flat and can be milled to correct any deviations, then just install and tighten correctly.
