flange sits against the flare in the pipe. Insert the left-
hand crossover pipe into the expanded end of the
right-hand crossover pipe. nOTe: It may be necessary
to back off the nuts or disconnect the right crossover
pipe from the manifold to assemble the crossover
pipes in place.
Install the assembled crossover pipes to the
exhaust manifolds using the factory exhaust
“doughnut” seal, springs, and nuts on the left manifold.
Tighten the stainless locknuts on the right manifold,
and make sure the 3-bolt gasket is in place. Install a 2”
exhaust u-clamp over the slip joint on the crossover
pipe assembly. Install the crossover pipe heat shield
(item 11) on the crossover pipe assembly as shown in
Figure
12.
Be sure the shield is positioned between
the crossover pipe and the fuel and radiator hoses.
check the clearances between the fuel lines and
the exhaust crossover pipe in the vicinity of the
fuel pump. shorten or reroute the rubber fuel hose(s)
so there is a minimum of one inch clearance (1

” or
more is recommended) between them and the exhaust
system. additional

It may be necessary
to trim this elbow slightly to fit.
Install 4” diameter flex hose between the air
filter casting and plastic air inlet hood. Trim
hose to length as required. Relocate ground wires as
required to clear the hose. secure hose with two no.
