Hi all...
I have a 73 2.0 liter that has been converted to carbs. I'm using a phenolic spacer under the intake manifolds to stop heat from cooking the carbs. Problem is that the studs that attach the intake to the heads are now too short and the nut only holds by a thread or 2. Does any know what I can use for a longer stud? Or maybe someone knows the specs of the stud? Is this a good idea? Will the old studs come out of the head? Thanks, Mike |

around 1/4". that's buying you some room and might allow retaining the phenolics. what are you using for washers?

I'm not using any washers!! No room!! You need a thin washer. 8mm that will fit under the nut. PVT nuts are good if you're scared of vibration but I've never had an issue with a nylon lock nut. I use these on velocity stacks for extra "grip". https://www.belmetric.com/stainless-high-type-c-3_752_1481/ |
