Any 364/401/425 exhaust manifold should bolt up to your block, fitment to your system may be a bit difficult as I think the manifolds changed quite a bit year to year. For your manifolds, it looks like 57 and 58 interchanges according to Russ's website.

1957-58 exhaust manifolds are identical except for the diameter of the studs for the headpipe flange connection(bigger for 1958, not significant,IMHO). I  have those. Please pm if still needed.
