To install 6.0 exhaust manifolds on my 6.4 while I do my first stud install-

Hardware- 6.0 or 6.4? Or hardware store?
Gasket- 6.4 be fine? Same?
Ebp tube- I thought I read a 7.3 works well? Or keep my 6.4?

Oh also anything in particular off top your heads I'll need in addition to this package I'll attach a pic of. Also most importantly thank you for the information you all share on here fellers! It helps tremendously!

hd up-pipes on way also.

As far as hardware for the manifolds, use the 6.0 bolts and spacers.
Also for the ebp tube- just use your stock 6.4l tube

Yes those are correct. And the 6.4-6.0l exh manifold gaskets are the same.

Not to throw the thread off but what's the benefit of going to 6.0 manifolds on a 6.4?

better flow and sound.

also, the 90* bend is cast into the manifold which is much stronger than having the bend in the uppipe. i cracked three bellows on stock uppipes and none since i switched to 6oh manifolds.

Videos of 6.0 manifolds on 6.4's anyone?

i doubt anyone has done just a manifold swap without any other changes, just too much work to get that far and only change the manifolds

i feel like they make the 6.0 manifolds make more noise in cab, not much more but i feel like you can hear more.

i did just manifolds and up pipes on one of the trucks and no other changes and i dont think it is your imagination about the cab noise. Sadly that truck is tradedin so i cant get a vid ;(

my truck got an atmo turbo, downpipe etc so a current vid probly wont help JGhouston much.
