I got my long branch manifolds from Paul @Rare just about a year ago. This was after waiting over 1 1/2 years for a set of round port long branch manifolds that never happened. Ended up having to buy D-port heads because I couldn't find exhaust manifolds. Kind of ridiculous. We are not getting any younger. The round port long branch never happened that I know of. It's been 5+ years now. It's a real shame that exhaust manifolds end up being the huge bottleneck that changes or cancels so many Pontiac builds. Yes, you can always have a set of custom headers made, but for a street car, the great Pontiac manifolds have many advantages.
Although Paul is a nice guy, the couple weeks and months quickly turn into years and often the parts never happen. Unless you can deal with that, your forced to look for other options.
