intake/exhaust mounting, what am I missing?

-
I spoke with Halfafish (Zach) :thankyou: for about an hour on the subject matter above~ really helped a great deal~ a lot goes on with the slant sixes!


Couldn't resist :lol:~ not quite sure to do about the used valve cover~ still thinking either red or black krinkle with the fin tips exposed , black would go well;)
Darn, the days are going by so quickly

Huh... Even at that, I'm thinking someone must have threaded it oversized because it either stripped or broke and was drilled out and rethreaded and no that won't hurt anything.
 
Yes, Zach and I had a discussion about it. That bolt does not go through the exhaust manifold, like it's made that way. I'm no way an authority on this;)
 
@Dne007, on that end exhaust manifold stud, you have the incorrect washer. What you should have is a brass washer with a bevel in it that the castled part of that nut goes into. The washer you have is one of the cupped washers and it's installed backwards anyway and also in the wrong spot. The correct place for it is in the center top intake stud and flipped around from how it is now.
 
Thank you Rusty, any pictures of a complete intake setup installed? mainly the upper bolts, and end nuts

nevermind, just saw your link;)
