All-
Has anybody attempted to use the stock explorer exhaust manifolds with an Explorer EFI engine swap which has the P heads? I know these manifolds do not look the best and some could argue look restrictive ... but has anybody tried to use them in their swap or confirmed if they will work or not? It seems most of the lower mile explorer engines I find are after 1997 1/2 so they have the P heads, so I am just trying to fully account for investing in the exhaust solution if I go with an explorer engine that has the P heads.
I am sure several have already gone through this exercise when trying to find the right donor Explorer engine, so any lessons learned, insights, or conclusions others have reached would be greatly appreciated. I know of the fuel rail change in '98, but I have already accounted for that one.
