Re: For Sale: New Copper Manilfold Rings
Steve, I tried to get ahold of the company in New Zealand a year back but I was told they were out of business. Plus they were more expensive than what you sold them for. I had a set some years back and I thought they were better than anything else on the market, but, you had to have a straight exhaust manifold. Frank.

Re: For Sale: New Copper Manilfold Rings
They are Australian made and available from Fuel Tank and Radiator Services. You will be pleasantly surprised by the price, especially if you order a few sets for the one parcel.
When re-fitting Henrietta's original manifold after our national Tour, I found it to be bent almost 1/8". These rings are made of thick copper and can take some tweaking. By reshaping the two end rings a little, and filing a taper on the end which goes to go to the block, I was able to fit the bent manifold quite satisfactorily.
They will even take filing to fit in the undersized ports in new reproduction manifolds.
Hope this helps,

MAC's Auto shows similar manifold rings under two different part numbers
https://www.macsautoparts.com/ford_mode ... -duty.html
https://www.macsautoparts.com/ford_mode ... ieces.html
They also have regular ones and have them listed for sale individually under 3 different part numbers

Looks like Snyder's has something similar

Just Google Fuel Tank and radiator Services and you will find them under parts/tools. The price will surprise you.

Re: For Sale: New Copper Manilfold Rings
If anyones going to order any, I'd like to buy a couple sets and maybe if enough people buy, a volume price can get obtained. Thanks

Re: For Sale: New Copper Manilfold Rings
Not sure why you wouldn't buy these from Snyder's or MAC's see links above
I priced a set of six from FTRS in Australia. $21.50 AUD converting to USD is $14.67 with shipping at $26.22 AUD so $47.22 AUD to USD = $32.20. Not sure if tariff / duties apply (away around this is to have them shipped as a gift when possible)
Snyder's price is $27.50 and MAC's $32.99 assuming they have them in stock. I had ordered something from Australia last year estimated shipping time was 11 to 35 days, took 20 days.

Re: For Sale: New Copper Manilfold Rings
I sent my engine out for rebuild, and so had to remove the manifolds. Had copper rings from Langston installed. Can they be reused and still provide a good seal?
