    1968 Fury 383 Heat Riser Valve

    It’s not stuck…but also doesn’t seem like it’s working properly. Think the spring is broken An acquaintance at a car cruise thought maybe clockwise was open but wasn’t sure so I’m glad I asked. Thank you. I had asked him if he had heard about big block mopars hard starting problem…plus smell of...

    1968 Fury 383 Heat Riser Valve

    Trying to figure out which way is open. Has original crossover pipe with single exhaust pipe. I have a feeling it’s not working properly like most. Want to wire it open but don’t want to remove crossover pipe to see inside. Anyone have a definite answer for me? Thanks.

    Gaskets or No Gaskets ?

    Well…should have listened to 5wndwcpe…after trying standard exhaust gaskets and header gaskets…decided to get high temp permatex gold. Third time was the charm. Sounds great now. I just hope it lasts. All depends what the situation is I guess. The shop that did my heads did not face the exhaust...

    Gaskets or No Gaskets ?

    Installed one header gasket on driver side…still leaking at stud nearest firewall (especially). Someone commented that’s where they’re most likely to leak and where that ticking sound comes from.

    Gaskets or No Gaskets ?

    Thanks guys. I have a stethoscope tried that…and couldn’t really hear anything different. Put it at every exhaust port and gave it some gas but heard nothing. I put shop vac on “blow” and pumped into exhaust pipe sealed with a rag and tape…plugged other exhaust…went under with some soapy water...

    Gaskets or No Gaskets ?

    Still wrestling with this exhaust leak problem. Thinking now it could be at connections between exhaust manifolds and crossover pipe. There was nothing in either connection when I took apart. In another thread I saw you guys talking about remflex graphite gaskets and some very good results...

    Gaskets or No Gaskets ?

    Getting my 318 back together here…From what I remember, I had no exhaust leaks prior to disassembly…and found NO gaskets in there. What do you think guys? Should I install exhaust manifold gaskets or not? I do have a set that I remember putting on the 318 in my old 70 Fury back in the day...
