bighammer48 Posted September 19, 2011 Report Posted September 19, 2011 I have a 48 D24 Sedan. I have determined that the previous owner put a flathead from a 54 Dodge into it. My exhaust manifold is cracked. I have 2 questions: 1.) I have an NOS intake/exhaust manifold combo from a 48 Dodge, will it fit this engine? 2.) I have removed 10 nuts and bolts from the manifolds, and yet they will not budge. Are there more that cannot be easily seen? The origunal D24 shop manual is of no help. Quote
Niel Hoback Posted September 19, 2011 Report Posted September 19, 2011 Bolt number eleven is in the center, underneath where you can't see it. Yes your NOS will fit. Quote

oldmopar Posted September 19, 2011 Report Posted September 19, 2011 The new exhause manifold will fit but it exits in a different place a little further back then the 54 so you may have to rework your exhaust engine pipe Quote
greg g Posted September 19, 2011 Report Posted September 19, 2011 I believe there are 13 fasteners for the manifold set up, not including the ones that hold the intake and exhaust together. Quote
Don Coatney Posted September 19, 2011 Report Posted September 19, 2011 Thirteen is correct as pictured. Quote
faucet47custom Posted September 19, 2011 Report Posted September 19, 2011 search the threads and read about how to remove the manifolds without breaking the bolts. I unfortunately didn't do that. Quote
