Wanted: exhaust manifold for a 262 in a 51 Super 6

Wanted: A good 262 exhaust manifold for 1951 Super 6. Also looking for a radiator for a 51 Hornet with the 308. Are the radiators the same for the inline 6 engine with or without the twin H set ups? Thank you in advance for the help.

  • Unless I’m wrong, the radiators are the same and all the exhaust manifolds are the same as well on the big block 6s.

    Radiators are interchangeable except Hornet & Commodore 8 usually have a thicker 4 Core. The 3 Core works just fine ttough. Twin H has no bearing on Rad size. 
  • Twin H and single carb exhaust manifolds are not the same.

    You can interchange exhaust manifolds. The only difference is the extra heat riser tube on the Twin-H version. Unless you are driving in cold weather, probably not an issue.

  • Thank you all for the heads up on Hudson's,  I am new to them. Trying to get a 51 Hornet and or a 51 Super 6 262 road worthy. Hope to be able to attend a Hudson gathering next  year. Any ideas on where to find a good exhaust manifold and a radiator? Again, thank you in advance for the help.
