Just pulled off my heat exchangers and exhaust manifold "thingy-ma-jig" off the heads from my stock '75. There seems to be quite a bit of difference between the old nuts that attach the manifold to the heads and the new nuts I got from Pelican.
Are the existing ones I took off stock? They are much thicker and look much more "stout". Attached image(s) |

That is what most shops would have used in the past. I dont *think* they are stock.
The ones on the right are what everyone one sells now. They are less prone to "rust" to the studs than the ones you pulled off. Most parts places found this out several years ago. They come from the exhaust manifold of a 924. You did good. What exhaust did you buy ? B |
