Hi, got the manifolds replaced using the Fenton intake and the original exhaust manifold.
all bolted up nicely. The rear Weber carb will not mount with the left firewall to fender brace bolted up. Do you guys extend, bend and lengthen that brace? It won,t take much.
Thanks Sharon

I have run without the braces without issue but plan to change that. I have seen them bent, cut and curved pieces put in, and have even heard that switching them from side to side give the clearance needed. Apparently, one is shorter than the other and mounts to a different set of inner fender bolts.

The horseshoe trick is as classic as the truck's owner.
