Description
There’s nothing quite like the frustration of losing power in the middle of fieldwork or smelling exhaust fumes in your cab. When your Ford’s exhaust manifolds start cracking from heat stress—and they will after years of hard work—you don’t just lose power and waste fuel, you’re also dealing with dangerous fumes finding their way into the cab. This complete kit gives you both the short and long side manifolds, so you can tackle the whole job at once instead of fixing one side now and the other later.
What You’re Getting
- Complete kit with both short and long side manifolds saves you from sourcing pieces separately
- Heavy-duty cast iron construction that’s built stronger than the originals to resist future cracking
- Precision-designed ports that maintain proper exhaust flow to your turbocharger
- Direct replacement design that fits exactly like the factory parts
- Eliminates power loss, reduces fuel consumption, and stops those dangerous cab fumes
Built for Real Farm Work
These manifolds fit the reliable 6-cylinder engines found in Ford 7840, 8240, and 8340 tractors, plus the TS115 models. Whether you’re pulling a big cultivator, running the round baler, or mixing feed, these tractors are workhorses that need proper exhaust flow to deliver their full rated power. When manifolds crack, your turbo loses boost pressure, the engine burns more fuel, and those toxic exhaust gases start leaking into places they shouldn’t be.
Made to Last
The casting process on these replacement manifolds creates a more uniform structure that handles heat cycling better than the factory parts. The mounting flanges are reinforced to handle the stress of constant heating and cooling without cracking. These are designed to address the weak points that caused your original manifolds to fail, giving you many more seasons of reliable service.
Installation Notes
This is a full day’s project that’s best planned ahead. Start soaking those exhaust studs with penetrating oil a few days before you begin—they’re notorious for breaking. The short and long sides aren’t interchangeable, so keep track of which goes where during removal. Having both manifolds in one kit means no waiting for parts mid-job, and you’ll appreciate tackling this during slower winter months when time isn’t as critical.
