Carl, here are some pics that may help.


First one is the spring for the heat riser, got mine from Kanters.

The second one shows the exhaust heat tube from the rear of the manifold to the carb on my '54. Not sure if your manifold may be different.

The third is just a side view of the manifold/motor.

Also you may want to move your jack stand back further, as you are supporting the greatest amount of weight with the narrowest part of the frame. I actually support mine where the frame rail and x-frame meet. Just in front of the firewall as the frame is still straight (flat) here so it sits nice and level on the jackstands. Some of the other folks also like to use the engine cross member.
