Abstract
An exhaust manifold system is provided for a transverse V-type engine including front and rear banks, each having a plurality of cylinders. The exhaust manifold system includes a front exhaust manifold for conducting the exhaust gas discharged from the cylinders of the front bank to an exhaust pipe, and a rear exhaust manifold for conducting the exhaust gas discharged from the cylinders of the rear bank to the exhaust pipe. This exhaust manifold system may be produced by welding stainless steel pipes for the front exhaust manifold and forming the rear exhaust manifold of cast iron.
