Re: Insulating I6 Exhaust Manifold Photos

Got the thick gasket that goes under the rochester/mono between adapter and manifold. About 1/4" thick. Dosn't help much. 10 minutes post shutdown and its perkin from radiated heat. When running, fuel bowl temps remain steady between 55 and 80 degrees F.

After shutdown, it rises to 100+ with 95ish being the boiling point of modern ethanol blends....not a problem for 40 psi fuel injection but a nemisis on carbed motors.
