65 SB Exhaust Manifold Spacers

[Michael S.]

The judging guide seems to indicate that spacers were used on all the exhaust manifold bolts. But I have been told that spacers were only used on the 4 end bolts with the French locks on each manifold and not on the 2 longer center bolts. Thanks for any clarification on this. Mike Sparr

Michael,
There should be no washers located in the center position of the exhaust manifolds. Only location is under the french locks (4 spacers per side). I believe there was a mis-print in the Judging Guides.Good Luck.

Joe -

Thanks for the response and clarification.

I should have done a search on the archives first to see if this issue had already been responded to. There is often an abundance of good info already in the archives that a member can refer to.
