Threaded. Kudos to son John for this and assembling the rebuilt radiator and new core.
It was determined that the intake manifold be slightly planed at the hot box instead of risking a significant warp to weld extra material on it.
One of the outside corners of the exhaust manifold mounting flange (to exhaust) has a hairline crack and will be cast welded. Then both bolted together with gasket and planed for mounting to the block. A week or two wait.
