well i looked behind it as best i can and no wires or anything that makes it look like some sort of switch. the very center of this is threaded like a stop or bumper screwed into it. there are no screws holding it on as you can see. i figured it was something to help keep the doors from...

30 sport coupe. this is the door jamb. looks like some sort of bumper should go here. you can push in the center part. it has a spring behind it. wanted to order 2 for the car. thanks

I have a 1930 plate I would like to put on the front of my car. But to put it to the light bar....well it is so big. Are there any brackets sold to mount to the front bumper or another place, rather than covering the radiator? Thanks

sorry i thought you were looking for the actual manifold cover. my mistake.

Here is a pic on the car

I have one I bought from brattons. It has the firewall door and all hardware. I would be happy to sell.

well the job finally appears to be over. got everything hooked back up and it seems to be leak-free. thanks to all for the tips and info. of course it got up to 67 here today so not much need for a heater at this point.

Thanks I did notice it was tight to slide in there and out. And yes this iPad does jump to words sometimes when I misspell. Sorry about that. Took the manifold and the intake to a machine shop this morning.

thanks to all. great tips and nice to have an idea on the torque. the manifold bottles just did not seem very tight to me when i took them off.but no exhaust leaks... so guess it was fine.

started my job of changing to the waffle manifold heater. pulled the old one off and got the new one painted. a couple of questions i was hoping to get answered. 1) how tight do you all torque your manifold bolts? 2) while pulling apart, there were three of the seals in between the exhaust...

went to Hershey this year for the first time. All I can say is "it's impressive!" and that is in all aspects. While there I bought an Auto-lite Manifold heater. the cover is going to need to be cleaned up and painted. Looking at the cover it looks like it may have been black at one time...

I saw something that said parking was plentiful on the main road in. guess I will chance that. we should arrive mid-morning Thursday so I thought I might go right to the lodge and check out the RM auction cars. they have a 31 sport coupe listed and I wanted to see it in person. then since we...

Hope this is in the right place... first time headed to the show. Coming in on Thursday and headed out Saturday. Not sure how much time it takes to get thru all of the swap meet. but was looking for some suggestions on a plan of attack. Also wondered how many on here may have a spot there and...

I ended up putting a small bead of permatex to the block and sticking the Gaskets on. I had to trim one of the tabs so it would fit in the groove for the rear seal. Good reason to dry fit first. I did soak the rear seal because it was cork. I can see the reasoning for the all-thread but you...

Permatex says to let it sit an hour before tighening. I assumed so it would harden a little and not squeeze out when tightening. Keeping a little thickness that would compress when you tighten the bolts.

Thanks again

I do have cork gaskets and the reason I was changing them is the old ones had pushed out. Can I prevent this now? I was hoping permatex on both side with some time to set up would keep that from happening.

Thanks What is the torque settings? I have read 5 lbs and 20 ft/lbs

Sorry I am sure this has been tackled many times but I can not find with a search. I am replacing the oil pan gasket on my 30 sport coupe and was hoping for tips and some instruction. Read all I could fine but wanted to make sure I have it covered. Pan is off and paint drying right now. I cut...

glad no one told dad it was a woman's car... though i think he tried to pick up a few with it. hehehe
