Here are some pictures of the restoration of a St. Lawrence manifold restoration. The exhaust outlet was missing about 45% of its threads and the carburetor inlet had essentially no thread. A local wizard filled in the exhaust with braze and welded a mild steel ring on the carburetor inlet. Both were subsequently successfully tapped. Several coats of high temperature black paint; one hour in the oven and the addition of a reducing bushing to bring the carb inlet down to 3/4 pipe to fit a Monarch carburetor.

Looks good Bob, let us know how it runs. David Prejean is amazed at how easy his starts and it runs great. |
