Hi all,
My first post here. I don't own a Pantera but hope to one day as I have been a lifelong fan.
My Q is for Joules5 or George. Do either of you know what manifold is pictured in the shot posted
by Joules. What struck me was the rear mounted
thermostat housing. I had one of those smack yourself on the forehead moments when I saw that.
Not only for the ease of maintanance but also
elinating some of the coolant tube clutter from the front of the engine.
The other major advantage to this layout may be an improvment in cooling. I've read Taphorn's
article on cooling and correct me if i'm wrong
but isn't the back of the heads one of the places that air pockets develop due to the eng. being
slightly nose down?
In the pick it looks like this might be a mod
because it appears the filler neck dealio has it's own secondary flange. Did anyone ever cast any mani's with the therm. housing on the back?
peace, Kiley
