    and the hits keep coming -- exhaust manifold

    So, I'm looking at my passenger-side exhaust manifold studs after I removed the exhaust manifold. One of the studs has very bad threads, as in partially rusted away and disintegrated. I remember that as I removed the nut from that stud, that it was making a screeching noise with each turn...

    rambling follow-up to my exhaust manifold removal problem, & a couple more questions

    I got my passenger side exhaust manifold off. The manifold-to-exhaust pipe nut that was obstructed turned out to not be as obstructed as I thought it was. Using a 1/2" drive socket -- deep enough to clear the bolt threads, but not too deep -- and a 1/2" to 3/8" HF wobble adapter, and an...

    source for Carter AFB secondary jets?

    Is it possible to buy Carter AFB secondary jets? I found the primaries for sale, but no secondaries. ALSO, it was pretty easy to read the numbers on my primaries, but there didn't seem to be any numbers on the secondaries. Does that sound right?

    1965 Monaco, Austin, TX

    Just acquired. Pretty sure the person I bought it from is a member of this Forum, but I don't know his user name. Appears to be 100% stock and unmolested. Odometer reads 87K miles, and judging from the interior condition and how well the engine runs, I believe that is actual. I intend to...
