[Tigers] exhaust dressing for original exhaust manifolds

[garywinblad at comcast.net]

I used Eastwood's on my manifolds in 1992.  Worked GREAT.  There is a little rust starting now but
boy did they look good for several years.  I had them sandblasted at the local headstone maker before
painting.  When you first fire up the new motor they will fume off for a while, don't start it in the garage!
