Here are pictures of the choke pocket, If needed I can take one without the cover, just did not have time to take it off when I did this.
And here is the crack

I had a very long thin crack in my exhaust, just below the intake-exhaust joint... We melded it like I said above. I have seen many stock exhaust (6 to 1) cut in the midle in order to make a 3-1, 3-1 exhaust, and the hole is perfectly melded in bronze. |

I think I might have one of those with the partial choke pocket... Let me check under my bench at my shop tomorrow after work... Will be much cheaper than welding you old one... -D.Idiot |

 I almost spaced this, yes I have one of these style manifolds with the partial pocket in intact shape, but...: 1) All the bolt holes have been reamed out, so for the exhaust pipe and outer 2 bolts you would need to du a full bolt and nut combo to get it together. The inboard stud hole is in good shape and I have a brand new stud to install in that location. 2) After getting the stack together you'll need to have it surfaced to make sure it's flat with your intake. 3) The previous owner of the stack decided the torch out the riser flap...so you'd need to do a transplant or do without and plug the holes with bolts. 4) The good news is I have stock stack gaskets and a remflex gasket I can throw in if you decide you need this manifold depite the above. Let me know if interested, -D.Idiot |
