Default exhaust manifolds???

im about to start on my exhaust......does any one know if you can make a driver side maniftomold bolt correctly to the passenger side.
if this will work, its going to make it easier to do a 2 into 1

its for a rock buggy.....limited room underneath b/c of the flat skid plate and uptravel on the suspension. if i can have it come out towards the front, i can bend some pipe around the front to the other side and have a single pipe going back from there.....2 INTO 1. sorry the first post wasnt clear enough for the knowitalls

longtubes wont work. closest thing would be vette manifolds, and bring the pipe under the oil pan to the other side... im not wanting to buy a 200 set of block huggers....yea im a cheap ***

there is no reason why they wont fit on the opposite side. bolt patterns are the same. just might run into clearence with the accessories on the front.

The heads work on either side therefore the manifolds will too.
