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".

Thanks Dave. I've heard about the VW replacement ones, that are supposedly pretty bad to use. I don't have much history on the engine if it's every been apart and no idea what stock nuts looked like.

The old stockers are sliced? I was wondering how they locked in place.
