shorter water pump?
i was hoping someone could clue me in on long shaft water pump vs. short shaft and pullies. I think the short shaft pump and correct pulley, along with the radiator core support from a 69 toro welded in will solve my 4 core radiator blues. I would really appreciate your help.

66 toro exhaust bolts
I was hoping someone could tell me what type of bolts fasten the exhaust manifold outlet to the exhaust pipe. Is it the type with springs or studs and brass nuts?

Re: NEW TO FORUM
thanks for the HEI info. air cleaner issues were what i expected. I am interested in your ideas for a rat rod 66 toro. I really want to cut the hood and install a blower, but thats a few dollars off.
