I picked up a Raceland header on eBay for my 1.6 for <$100. So far, so good.
I'm want to replace my exhaust manifold with in the next couple of weeks and was wondering if anyone has a stock manifold or even a cheap aftermarket header they'll part with for cheap. My car is a California car so it has a cat on the manifold and it probability beat to crap with all the fuel my car is dumping due to my compression issue. So I wanna get rid of it and see if it helps a bit while I gather funds for another engine.
So anyone? if not, how much might a used stock one cost?

Mazda-Nissan Heaven in Kennedale will have OEM's, and cheap. Probably $35 if you walk out into the yard and pull it yourself.

I'll ask gary if he'll sell a stock header. We have a few.
^ Cool, thanks!

Well I went to a couple of salvage yards today and nada. mazda heaven didn't even have a single NB and all others either didn't have one or just weren't willing to give it up.

Bummer. I didn't realize that would be a hard-to-find item. Have you checked Flyin Miata's salvage list?

No but shipping would bump the price a bit, I might just end up getting one from Gary.

Not sure if dad wants to sell, but we just pulled the stock exhaust and installed new stuff last weekend. I will ask him if he is willing to part with it and for how much. Not sure what shipping would be from Virginia Beach to Texas, but may be reasonable. Let me know if you are interested and how much you are willing to pay?
I don't think I'm willing to pay enough for you guys to bother trying to ship it. I'm trying to save my pennies for another engine.
