Putting out an offer

To everyone that will be at the Truck Show,

If anyone wants to go to Row 52 and look at the pick n pulls in the Dallas, Ft. Worth and Grapevine areas. If there is anything that people are looking for I can look around on the next few visits before September.

I'll do my best to accommodate any requests. If it's an engine or a full bed I won't be able to manage that. Anything else I think I can handle.

Let me know here or on Row52.com to the username: DATurner2nd

I can work out the details of payment when the time comes.

I would love an OEM exhaust manifold for the 300 engine from a F600. This is referred to as the Heavy Duty exhaust manifold. The exhaust exits straight down [not rearward at an angle] and the opening is 2 1/2".

For illustrative purposes...

Also note there are two versions. One with 3 bolts attaching it to the intake like the light duty manifold, and one with 4 bolts joining the manifold and exhaust. If it is the 4 bolt version then the matching intake is needed or else it cannot be used. I’ve been trying to find this part for David for a couple of years and no luck...

You guys are starting to understand me!

I'm heading to the Pick N Pulls at 7 AM tomorrow so I'll keep an eye out for this. I'll see if I can match the pictures..

I'm assuming but I want to clarify, am I looking for the 3 bolt version correct?

First of all thanks for helping with the search. Reproductions are available but are known to have issues with cracking 😬 and they are not exactly inexpensive.

First issue is to recognize a HD from an ordinary 300 manifold. The regular one exits at about a 45* rear angle, has a heat flapper, and the head pipe mounts on 2 studs. It looks like this:

The HD manifold exits almost straight down. It has no heat flapper, and the head pipe mounts with a 3 bolt flange (not to be confused with the number of bolts that join the intake and exhaust manifolds). This is what David wants and it looks like this:

The 3 vs. 4 bolt problem is with the intake to exhaust mating. If you find one with 3 bolts, David can use his existing intake manifold. If it is the odd 4 bolt variety, then he will need BOTH manifolds. Here is a picture of the joint I am talking about. This is a 3 bolt HD:

Clear as mud? Hopefully the pictures will help. The candidates will be late 60’s through 70’s F600/F700, but I always check all 300 straight six trucks just in case someone swapped one in.

Jonathan,

I just now found that you had answered this [so very well!!!] for me. Thank you!

Maybe a good example of not getting notified because the answer wasn't to your post?

Nabble doesn't work like many other forums.

I've been looking but nothing yet. So far most of them have been stripped down to almost nothing.

LAST CHANCE for items!!

I'm heading out this Sunday in the AM to browse the Pick N Pulls here in the DFW area.

Anything specific that people are looking for let me know and I'll see what's out there.

The plastic A-pillar trim would be a help for me. And good rear plastic trim as well since it frequently is dead from all the UV. But, in Tejas you get more UV than we do, so.....

And the horn cruise pad on Big Blue recently fell apart. It is the burled wood that is 85/86 specific, but black or Rosewood would do.

Thanks!

Re: Putting out an offer

I see what I can find while I'm there.

I also sent you an email with a question too.

Got the email and responded. My request was poorly worded. I meant the trim in the rear of the cab, like where the seat belts come through.

Thanks!

1) Driver's side seat belt retractor, the spring-loaded device behind the plastic cover:

2) Driver's side aluminum wheel well arch trim, this is the other side so you can discern which type I have (that rhombus-shaped stuff):

3) I'm going to my local JY this morning and am hoping to pick up a steelie rim, 16 x 7 with 8 lug holes, I think they're something like a 6" spacing but I need one for a spare tire:

Chris - I probably have the wheelwell trim.

Cool, we'll look for it when I get there, I suspect it's in the attic.

Bought a rim and had the spare tire mounted today, so at least I'm OK in that regard. :)

Found a 1983 F150 in the JY but the seat belt wasn't in any better shape than what I've already got, so I left it.

I'm bringing some license plates, too.

I'm going to look for whatever is listed. So going in the morning. Just out and about today with the Mrs.

I'll post what I've been able to find tomorrow.
