Ayuh,... I've heard of 'em but never seen 'em...

I believe they're offshore pieces,...
I bought GLMs,+ had to remachine 'em....

I have installed several sets of the HGE manifolds.In my opinion they are better made than the GLM brand.
The sets from ebasicpower come with all new hardware and nice thick gaskets.

I just put a set on a 5.7 Merc a couple weeks ago....for the price you can't beat them.

Thanks guys!
I can get a set for $740 about ?500 here in the uk.Thats 2 manifolds 2 risers and gaskets.Not bad considering here in uk a genuine mercruiser set costs about $1800. A question for Gary H NC Do you know how long the oldest set you've instaled is ?
