After all.... what could be more interesting than exhaust pipe gaskets

'63 M Codes use the flat flange mounting configuration and gasket, the same as '61 and '62. In fact, the '61-'62 C1SE 4V and 6V exhaust manifolds are interchangeable with the '63 C3SE 6V exhaust manifold and are often found on M Code conversions because the C3SE manifolds are relatively scarce.Jim - which car is using those gaskets? I thought all of your Birds are '63 or later which would mean doughnuts wouldn't it? Or did the '63 M engine use a carryover exhaust manifold from '62?
Pretty straightforward. Complete 63 dual exhaust conversion system. One pair of intermediate exhaust hangers, and one pair of muffler hangers. Two donut gaskets, four clamps, and four new brass 7/16 -14 or 7/16-20 exhaust nuts dependent on the studs that are presently on your manifolds. Check the threads when removing the old nuts. The brass nuts are available at your local auto store. You'll also need to buy various new bolts and nuts for securing the hangers to the frame and the mufflers to the hanger brackets, all readily available at the local hardware store.ricklove wrote: ↑Fri May 10, 2019 11:39 am WHEW!!! I'm fairly new to this forum and recently purchased a 1963 Landau coupe. Can someone point me in the right direction to order ALL the parts I'll need to convert from the single to dual exhaust? Thanks!!!!
Great forum; I've learned a bunch so far, and looking to get smarter every day!! Thanks to each of you!!!
