Need advice on Manifold

Posted by Dan S (NY) on May 19, 2005 at 15:03:46 from (64.80.168.6):

Hi, quick question, I"m trying to install a new manifold on my Farmall M engine and there seems to be no way to get a socket on several of the stud nuts. The center two have so little clearance that the nut itself rubs on the manifold casting. The old manifold had plenty of clearance, but obviously the new one is a slightly different casting. I had read in the archives that the aftermarket manifolds where pretty good for these tractors, so I"m a bit surpised at this. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
Dan
