Abstract
A combustion engine exhaust assembly. The assembly comprises an exhaust gas passageway that includes a divider plate assembly. The divider plate assembly includes a body and a divider plate wherein at least one of the body and the divider plate are generally formed from a material resistant to at least one of extreme temperature conditions, extreme thermal gradient conditions, and extreme loads. The divider plate assembly is useful in distributing exhaust gases within an exhaust assembly and is generally capable of extending the useful life of an exhaust manifold, for example.
