Hope you guys can solve a mystery for me. My '52 has original 216, and I think original exhaust pipe. The pipe has a flat flange on it, exactly as pictured...

Jim, the flange can be flat but the donut sealing area of the exhaust pipe should replicate the sealing area of the exhaust manifold. In other words, the pipe...
Thanks, and I'm not disagreeing with your logic at all... Let me describe again my pipe and flange, and clarify my question: my pipe has a flat flange on it,...

Remove everything you can, including the doors, and the cab will almost be kind of light. A couple of 8 foot 2 x 4s under it and two strong guys can easily...

Hey Jim, I had to go out to look in my stash of stuff. It's more clear to me now. I have an "original" exhaust pipe here where the flange is completely welded...
