-> Actually, Pontiac only used aluminum exhaust manifolds for drag
-> racing.
-> Anything else, they would have melted.

 Not necessarily.  From reports they did okay for normal driving, though
they were wont to drip molten aluminum after a hard pass.

 Aluminum pistons and cylinder heads don't melt, you know.  As long as
you can pass the heat off somewhere fast enough you're okay.  The
manifolds couldn't reject enough heat to keep up when run hard.
