Just got word from the foundry yesterday that there are 20 more manifolds at the machine shop… means I’ll be making another run next week to CA and pick them up for shipping with enough valve covers to fill ALL valve cover orders… Feedback so far is that a gentleman from Canada got his manifold and polished Poly SS-X valve covers with packaging totally thrashed in shipping but minor scratches on the valve covers easily polished out… We’ll beef up our shipping containers and probably ship valve covers separate from manifolds from here on… Dan Jaynes- WOW!!! Got it yesterday....gorgeous....beautiful....wonder what it looks like in black polished? Will try to get it on this weekend. Bruce Toth- Roland good news I got home and my intake and valve covers were here they look great you really out did yourself. Dave Antonucci…Hi Roland, pics attached of the off center mounting bores. I have the loose pipe thread bores also. We still having Dave reviewing the bolt holes relationship to the ports believing that a very minor core shift caused one bolt boss to be undercut… and for all who do get these manifolds, the ports are made about .250” wider than the original factory Poly ports ergo there is some over/undercutting experienced for bolt clearance and a special socket (allen) head bolt set is required…(That’s how we got such a huge increase in performance…) Regarding the loose pipe thread holes-water and vacuum taps-, if a quality pipe thread tape is used it is a non-issue… Can’t wait to get yours coming at you Bill (as well as everybody else!!!) From: 1962to1965mopars@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:1962to1965mopars@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Bill M Who out there has received their manifold? Any thoughts, opinions, or reviews? I'm patiently awaiting mine.
