Intake manifold or exhaust manifold?
The cast iron exhaust manifold are the same for all models. The early years had stainless steel exhaust manifold but they didn't make the Z06 until 2001.

You might want to add the model and year of your car to your profile. It will make it easier for people to help you. Better yet just post that info when you start a thread.

The 97-99 use one length, the 2000 uses another length, both stainless. The 2001-2004 use their own length, there is no difference between what is used on the Z/06 and the base corvette. Those are the cast manifolds.
