Hello/A good OOC manifold ii VERY hard to find.A guy last year bought an early 30s E ,with a bad manifold, and fabricated one from scratch.The build with pictures is documented on this site.It was amazing !I have a E-38 parts tractor with complete engine,but of course the manifold is bad.Engine is stuck from sitting.Where are you located. Bill in CT.

What is left of your manifold? If the surface that goes up against the block is ok, you can probably piece the rest together. Very hard to find good ones.
My gramps Howard van Driest was Experimental Engineer at Cletrac and Oliver Corporation. After the plant closed, he and my uncle started an excavating business, initially using Cletrac and Oliver Crawler tractors.

well of course the manifold is gone where it goes to each exhaust port on each side... common.

i would be willing to buy whole part machines or parts that anyone would like to part with.
I take it that an the young guy on the block here, mid twenties, hoping to turn into a big collector of cletracs, etc.
Finally bought a large parcel were i can finally store all my machines.
Looking to be a sponge and absorb everything i can from all the knowledgable people on here or i meet at shows.
thanks
