exhaust manifolds

Here's an update: I had .125 milled off of the mounting surfaces on both manifolds and ground off the casting numbers too. Took a 1/8 of an inch off the top of the flange were the pipe bolts on by the column, shorten the column tube 1/2 inch and shimmed the engine up 1/8 of an inch on the drivers side. The steering coupler clears with about a 1/16 of an inch gap, and I have to repair the coupler. On the passenger side I removed the casting blank for the air tube and had to tweak the tranny dipstick a little on the passenger side. Now getting the pipes to clear with the kick down linkage installed is the next step! A short oil filter works fine without a 90 degree adapter. The pictures aren't the best but I hope they help some.
