The passenger side is much more common Steve, so that is the one people really need. To tell you the truth, even the 68 and up left side ones really don't look much different, except to the trained Mopar 67 B-body aficionado. Who ever that might be...

One of the main differences between the 67, 68 and 69 HP manifolds is where the exhaust pipes mate up the manifolds. Slightly different flange angles for the different model years.
If this 67 manifold is in good shape, that really isn't a bad price these days. Back in 1989, I paid $150.00 for the set of 69 HP manifolds that I'm still running in my 66 Coronet today and they were in extremely nice condition. I would highly recommend that anybody who purchases a used set of these 67, 68, or 69 HP manifolds, that they should take them to your machine shop and have their cylinder head mating surfaces checked to make sure those surfaces are flat. If they are a bit warped, they can be machined to bring them back to factory specs as long as they aren't to badly warped. I also have all of my HP manifold port openings machined to match the cylinder head exhaust ports and gaskets.
Unless you're building a serious race car, these HP manifolds are a beautiful alturnative to headers as they will bolt into all big block powered 66-70 B-Body cars without any modifications other than to the exhaust system where it mates up to these manifolds and they won't give you all of the hassles that headers do. With a good exhaust system bolted up to them, they will sound as good as headers in my opinion also. If you don't want to take a chance on a used set of HP manifolds, you can also purchase a brand new set of reproduction manifolds through most Mopar parts dealers as well.
