Gotta find a new picture hosting service because I have some things to share.
Got the manifold back and it’s nice. They did an excellent job and actually blasted the whole thing for me. I cleaned it up and rattlecanned it white (almost ceramic haha). I’d like to cure it but the wife threatened divorce if I put it in her oven. Tempting offer… ��
So I’m just gonna start reassembling and “cure it on the car”. Anyone know the torque speck of all this stuff? I was supposed to find a good reference before I started reassembly but haven’t found one yet.
Cleaning up the block now. Will update and eventually post some pics.
