I thought of all this and more before posting my comment. Still don't get it. Historical significance is needed to warrant such cost or desire. Someone show me the historical significance. I was born years after it was cast. Maybe I missed something...

Sorry,,,misunderstood you. Agree, manifold is not worth what he's asking. Especially cince its not a bolt on & run type of deal. Thats a lot of coin for something thats just a wall hanger in the man cave!!
