Exhaust Leak



We had been told there was an exhaust leak on the drivers side when we lived at Casa but had no idea what this meant. Yesterday, while checking the timing, Will saw flames between the exhaust pipe and the headers when we rev'd the engine. With a can of WD40 and a pneumatic wrench he tightened up the rusted header bolts and suddenly we knew what an exhaust leak sounded like, and what a glass-pak'ed 352 FE sounds like -

This is AFTER ..... 


The drum brakes on this survivor tend to grab ;)

  1. Hello, I just acquired a 66 f250 with a 352. Can you tell me where your truck's temperature sender is on the engine? maybe send a pic. My truck needs to be completed. Restoration started but was not completed so I have a bunch of things to do. thanks
