The early Fentons are a cast manifold simular to the stock exhaust. They are a little smoother flow and I believe a bit bigger interanlly. Chuck

Patrick's is looking into re-creating the original Fenton Headers for Y's. As I understand it, that will constitute a version for the passenger cars and one for the T'Bird. He owns the Fenton name, and closely controls any use of it. I had contacted him about a year ago to see if he would consider allowing me to reproduce the castings with that name. We were unable to come to an agreement, although I could be involved in obtaining castings. Time will tell on this. The Chev 6  and Flathead castings are made overseas, while mine are made in the US, so it is often difficult to compete pricewise.

       The more interest that folks express to Patrick, the more likely he is to pursue this, so letters and phone calls will help seal the deal. On the bright side, this is another example of renewed interest in out favorite engine, and that's a good thing!

Please call or email Patricks! I've talked with him and he is an old racer. He thinks the market would be too small to justify making the Fentons for Y-Blocks. He sells 500+ Fentons for 6 banger Chevys each year! ChuckWink
