For those of you that found yourself without a manifold what

[Relic]

Hi my E has a bad manifold. the 2 outer ends are bad. the middle four are ok but missing center between mounting bolts and it would take some fabrication to repair. What suggestions do you have for me is there another manifold I can use or or that will work with a little alteration?
Thanks,
Mike Purcell

Anyone?

Mike, I don't know of any other manifold that will work. You'll just have to call around and hunt. You'll probably need lots of parts, so if I were you, I'd be in the market for a spare tractor for parts. Probably be cheaper than buying one part at a time. Your E has a OOC Hercules. The AG Cletrac also uses that same engine. There are lot of them out there, but you'll have to do some hunting. And hunting for parts is half the fun of this game.

There is a link to tractor junk yards all over the country on this site. You can use the classifieds too. It will take time to find everything.

Good luck.

There a guy selling hercules bits on ebay, I haven't brought anything from him but I spoke to him to suggest an advert on here.  He hads lots of parts, it maybe worth trying him, I think he's advertising a waterpump at the moment, it says in his ad he has more parts. Sam
