TX WTB 6 cyl 250 parts carb spacer 2 row radiator good exh manifold - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**WIDESIDE72** · 05-03-2012, 08:42 AM

I am in need of a few odds and ends in order to make my dad's nice 71 nicer. We have almost all of the parts to add power steering, including the offset air cleaner, but I noticed that the spacer that goes between the air cleaner and carb is missing, so I need one.

His radiator is original and seems like the solder is giving up. It is not leaking, just seems weak.

The has a stripped bolt hole and it seems like the exhaust manifold may be warped. He said he can't hear it, but it seemslike it has a slight exhaust leak.

PM me and I will respond with my email address so that you can send photos

I think I have that spacer. I also have a manifold I took off for someone but they didnt get back to me. Its not warped or cracked but the heat riser is seized up and needs some work as well the flange studs are broken. I have another still on a motor that is no doubt better but I cant get it till Saturday so Im not sure. I can drill the studs and retap this one. Ill try and get a picture of that spacer later so you can see if its what you want.

Please post pics of the spacer. Any idea how much you need to have for it shipped to Lolita TX 77971? Same for the manifold too please.

This is the spacer I have. To be honest Im not sure if this is what you want. I bought two trucks from a guy for parts and this was with a bunch of misc stuff. You tell me or if your not sure maybe someone else will confirm. If you want that manifold in the pictures as is with broken studs you can take it for $30. It was $20 to ship the last one I sent so thats a starting estimate. If I drill and tap the holes I gotta get $50,it took me an hour to do one the last time. I'm going where the other one I have is tomorrow I think it will be better after I get it off I will price it based on condition and then give you an accurate shipping price that will be good for either one. If thats the spacer you need I will take $10 and if you buy a manifold I can throw it in the same box.

Dad picked up a 3 rw and hold downs from pmarti today for $75, so I am good with it, but how much do you need for yours? Is it rotted or leaky? I might hang onto the 3 row for a V8 truck I have.

I had never ran the truck before tearing it down to the frame so not sure if it leaked any. It looks to be in good shape and if you need it you can just have it.
