The year might help people out to know what to look for. Have you done a google search to see if any on-line site has them?

Thanks for the reply Carnivore, Its a 99 striper 5.0 Gi Volvo DP. I've checked marine parts express they seemed expensive also checked Moore performance alot cheaper but they offer GLM brand and I read on another site they have had problems with cracks. I'm going to research it some more

Thanks,Scott

If you use your boat in salt often I would recommend these (no affiliation with co).Ceramic/edp coated for corrision protection and reasonable priced.

Mercruiser, Marine Engines, Boat Engines, Boat Motors, Mercruiser Parts, Boat Parts, Marine Exhaust - Performance Product Technologies

Would've bought a set for my V-6 Vortec but unfortunately they don't manufacture them for my 2000 4.3 GL.

I have the GLM manifolds on my boat and haven't had any problems. The GLM gaskets are pieces of shit though so buy the OM gaskets from Volvo. I also had to polish the manifold/engine surface and the manifold/riser surface because it wasn't quite smooth. The quality is definately not as good as Volvo, but at 1/4 the price.....

I got mine from a guy on ebay (in Azuza, CA or something).
