Re: Project COPO cleanup
Bill,
Here you can see the evidence of the mask used when this manifold was painted. Sharp edges rather than a fogged edge. Verne [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

Re: Project COPO cleanup
Has anyone ever seen the engine install plate that is attached to the carb studs pull off? I've never used one of them because I'm always concerned that those 4 studs will pull right out of the aluminum!

Re: Project COPO cleanup
A few months back I was bolting my lift bracket to a BBC and noticed one stud would not torque up. So even after the heli-coil repair I elected to use a chain bolted to the heads, Makes me nervous too.

I was always leery of using the plate, but I have a lot of friends including my engine builder who uses it all the time. I ended up setting my engine in and had no issues at all. I can't remember the numbers but if you add up the strength of four 5/16" bolts......they will hold a lot, even in aluminum. Anyway.....your project looks great Albert. Can't wait to see/hear it in Ohio. Kurt
