Ferguson TO30 Exhaust Pipe

[OldFart187]

My 1953 TO30 with Continental Z129 engine has a flat 3 bolt flange exhaust manifold. I need a new exhaust system but can't find one with a 3 bolt flange that fits the TO30. The MF135 pipe has the 3 bolt flange but the bend geometry may be different. Where did my 3 bolt flange manifold come from? Where can I get an exhaust system without buying a new manifold or cutting and welding?

Sounds to me like a 135 manifold was installed on your tractor at some time.

Did you try a muffler shop that bends pipe?

TO-35 exhaust pipe will fit this application.

My guess is you have an aftermarket TO35 manifold . When I go my TO35 style manifold it came with adapter
so I could use TO 20-TO30 style EX pipe.

That's what it looks like, an aftermarket manifold that works with the stock TO35 exhaust system.
