We have a new manufacturer producing heater pipes and they've sent us the first batch with the new hd flange. The flange is 1/4" thick to prevent warpage or leaks at the water pump mounting flange.

I'm not complaining, but I am curious as to why no one has these made to include the tab that attaches to the exhaust manifold? I love the HD flange and SS, but I don't understand the omission of the other piece. "Splain it to me! Thanks. b-

I have both versions in stock, with the nipple and without. If you modernize the carb with an electric choke, you don't need the small water line anymore
