RE: tips on removing exhaust manifold on '68 428CJ

By Jim - 08/31/2002 8:48:43 AM; IP 65.69.140.28

Took a 428 CJ out of a 68 Mustang and recommend removing the transmission first. Bell housing and starter can stay. There is barely room going forward and up to remove it. There is more room forward than I thought. It'd be interesting to know how it was put in on the assembly line.

Take a look at the pattern on the shock tower reinforcement and it appears to be cut out to allow the engine and exhaust to nestle in with not more than 1/16 to 1/8 clearence between exhaust manifolds and shock towers. Hope this helps.

This thread, so far...
