Spent some time on getting the intake and exhaust manifolds restored and cleaned up. I ended up using the intake from the wartime engine and the exhaust from my replacement engine. The exhaust manifold on the wartime engine was very badly pitted whereas this one was in excellent shape. Ran both through the sandblasting cabinet. A lot of junk was cleaned out of the intake around the heat riser box. I only snapped one stud on the exhaust manifold and even with some decent heat to the stud it would not come free. So I drilled it out and retapped the hole. I’ll replace it with a new stud. I’m thinking I’ll paint the exhaust manifold in a high heat black
