[WANTED] 273 v8 heat riser springs

[chewy]

The heat riser springs I have on my 65 rusted through and are gone. I need a good set of heat riser springs to reduce the rattle when running.

Hoping someone can help.

PM me if you have some you want to sell.

Thanks. That's Andy Bernbaums site. Great find. It's one of the two springs I need. Anti-rattle spring is missing, and the thermo spring is broke. Not sure why it application only goes up to 1964. Must be 318 Poly, but for 273, I don't know what the difference would be from 64 to 65.

Thanks Jeff. I appreciate the time.

I got both of mine from AMS Obsolete but that was probably 15 years ago.

Checked there just now, thats Frank Mitchell's old site (RIP). No exhaust parts left for 60-69.

Hey Chewy... are you wanting the coil spring or the anti-rattle spring in the drawing? I must have taken the manifolds off the 2 engines I have and maybe placed in one of my totes. Just making sure I am looking for what u want. And you need one for each side correct? 2 total

Hi Jeff

After the page above AB page above, the anti-rattle spring is the primary one I am looking for. Thinking I'll order the new thermo spring from AB.

Edit: only need one, they are on the passenger side manifold.

Getting one of the thermo springs off an old manifold is a challenge at best.

Good Morning Chewy,
No luck on the anti-rattle springs. Sorry brother...Those should be easy to get at the hardware with the pin spread dimension.

Thank you for trying Jeff, I appreciate you taking the time to look.

Will measure it and check McFaddendales to see if they have something that will work. It's the only real hardware store in town.
