So I found all the pieces to put my 1980 K10's exhaust back to factory OEM. I removed the old dual exhaust system and am in the process of re-installing the new OEM parts.
When I removed the nuts holding the exhaust pipe from the cast iron exhaust manifolds I was surprised to find that they were brass nuts that are about three times the length of a regular nut.
Are these self chasers or something to clean up the threads on the studs???
I just don't remember these being brass in the past. Are these OEM or something else.
Thanks for any response.
