Abstract

A manifold assembly includes a clevis-style mounting structure, a first manifold section, a second manifold section, an accessory disposed between the first and second manifold sections, and a plurality of threaded clevis fasteners. The clevis-style mounting structure includes an upper clevis structure and a lower threaded clevis structure. The clevis-style mounting structure may be operatively configured to be mounted on a cylinder head. The first manifold section has distal and proximal ends. The first manifold section is integral to the clevis style mounting structure. The plurality of threaded clevis fasteners operatively configured to mount the clevis-style mounting structure to a cylinder head via a plurality of corresponding passageways defined in the cylinder head.
