Intake-exhaust manifold torque? 1936 Airstream C8


Recommended Posts

Hi Dale,

I have a Motors Auto Repair Manual that includes Chrysler 1935-1948. It shows 15-20 foot lbs for the manifold stud nuts. It apparently is the same for all those years. Hope this helps.

Regards,

Jerry

Afraid I can't help you on this. I don't have a 1936 Airstream. I only have a Motors Repair Manual for cars 1935 to 1948.

One more thing, are you painting the exhaust manifold and if so what color would be correct?

Link to where I got my gaskets http://www.northwesternautosupply.com/getParts.html One call got them to me. I painted both Intake & exh. manifolds a VHT # that I can't find right now but can get. It was a close match to the cleaned up natural cast. The block got Duplicor DE1650 Cast Coat Aluminum. I believe both colors came pretty close to original as near as I can tell.
