Yes, I have a 1969 Camaro with a big block.  Thanks for helping.  Someone replaced mine with regular screws.

Does anyone have photos, or tell me where I can find them, of the correct screws that attach the bracket where the heater hoses goes into the firewall through the cover?

Thank you,

Jody

If reasonable is $300 for the right and $375 for the left.  Both sight unseen, both eBay. They have photos, but they have both been painted, which could have covered any visible cracks.  Both sellers have good reps on eBay.

Would I be better off just buying new manifolds through Classic Industries or D&R Classic Automotive who has "**GM Licensed**" manifolds.  Will originals fit and flow better?

I forgot to ask what is a fair price to pay for these.  They are for sale by different people.   Left side worth?  Right side worth?

I have a 69 Camaro built the 4th week of OCTOBER 1968.  I need exhaust manifolds, I found a right side cast I 14 8, (Sept. 14, 1968) and a left side cast I 19 8, (Sept., 19 1968).  Are these dates too early for my car?
