Want to buy exhaust heat shields for my 1965 235hp 273, both sides.

IIRC the commonly available gasket sets include heat shields; however, the driver’s side is not concours correct. The correct shield is considerably taller than what’s found in the gasket sets. I can take a picture tomorrow showing the difference
 
Thanks. I thought the heat shields were sold separately from the gaskets. I’ve never had mine off, so I didn’t know. The original engine for my coupe and my spare (bought used) don’t have them. These pictures are of the engine in my convertible. Do you know of a brand that has the correct heat shields? I’m trying to stay original as much as possible, but I’m not worried about concours correct.
 
I am not aware of any company offering NOS exhaust manifold gaskets; occasionally one might pop up for sale here on FABO. The one I have I bought here. You might check with @65dartcharger to see if he has an extra
 
I’ve been looking at some old threads on this. Looks like NOS gaskets are extremely expensive - if you can find them.I haven’t seen anything for a 273, but there is some 340 stuff out there. Thanks.
