Anyone use/adapt a 318 Exhaust Manifold to a 340?

[Dibbons]

I have two passenger side exhaust manifolds (casting #3418623s see photo) for the 340 I am putting together and I can't find a driver's side (casting 3418621). I have a pair of 318 exhaust manifolds on the '71 BBody I am working on. Will I be able to use the driver side 318 exhaust manifold on a 340 without major problems? It would only be temporary. Thank you.

Will it work? Sure. Is it right? Nope. I would be more concerned about the exaust pipe you will have to make and re-mske with the combination you are preposing.

I would be concern of the engine not breathing right. 340 exhaust ports is bigger.

Could always port match the 318 manifold so there wouldn't be a step....
