As many of you are aware, for several years I've been converting my 1974 to a 3.2 914/6. For nearly two years it's been on jackstands. Well I'm getting close to completion, and I need to source up to date heat exchangers.

I have a set of used OEM exchangers, but the flange thickness is different, (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) (thinner) and they won't work without spacers, or reseating all the head studs. So I need to find someone who can supply me a set that will work with a 3.2.

Any guidance will be appreciated.

Mike, SnapOn has a collet style stud remover that has worked well for me but Clay's method sounds good too and the heat from the torch may actually really help in them coming out. You are planning on supporting the HE's and the muffler with a bracket at the back end, right?

Yep, when I sold the 2.0 engine that was originally in the car I kept the muffler bracket.
