<VV> 64 monza questions

[N. Joseph Potts]

Manifolds and packings should be pretty complete. Going in and coming back
out, there's not usually any other (particular) thing. You may note some
omitted or substituted fasteners. Oh, yeah - one thing: get new "French
locks" for the manifold nuts, and new manifold nuts might be a little nicer,
too. I would include these in a manifold "package," if Clark's didn't.

I have an exhaust leak.  I think it makes the engine
run a little rougher when it gets fully warm, as it is
pretty smooth up until you've been driving it a while.
 Does this sound reasonable?  Both sides have
manifolds with broken ears, and I think it would
probably be best to replace the manifolds and the
packing at all the joints.  I see Clark's has
reconditioned manifolds that come with the packing and
new studs installed.  Do I need to order anything else
before I attack this job, or will this do?  Any hidden
tricks?

Thanks!
