Ames Performance is proud to announce that Ram Air manifolds will be available again soon! Much has changed in recent years with regard to availability and quality of cast iron Ram Air manifold for many popular classic Pontiacs. With that, we have elected to manufacture our own, exclusive castings for 1967 HO/RA(also fitting 1964-66 GTO/LeMans & Tempest V8), 1968-72 RA/H.O. D-Ports and 70-81 Firebird/TransAm D-Port applications. Many hours have been logged at our facility during this period to ensure fit, function and the most authentic pieces are offered to the Pontiac enthusiast. Currently, price has yet to be determined however, these will be as competitively priced as is feasible without sacrificing a degree of quality or character. Round port manifolds will also be pursued in the near future.

I have a sweet of these on my 70, and they fit and look excellent.
I'll be in the market for another set when they're available again.
