Heat Riser Tube 1960

[oregonjam]

Hello,

I am in need of bending a correct heat riser tube from the passenger side exhasut manifold to the carb. Can someone share photos of the front view and side view so I have something to go by? I haven't seen this part for sale so if you know of a resource let me know otherwise I will make one with reference images when found.

thank you for all of your help!
John

There is one for a Carter AFB carburetor on Caddy Daddy.

Scroll down about 2/3 of the page to see the tube on the above website.

Classic tube shows one for a Rochester carburetor, but they are saying Rochester WCFB carburetor, which is not correct!!!  Carter is WCFB and is for older applications.  It would be worth a call to them to clarify, and maybe they could send you pictures to see if it is the correct one for your application.

The one shown on the 1960 Fleetwood Rochester does not quite look like stock from what i can see.

I am sure it works, but the OPGI has the correctly shaped one.

Sorry for the lack of a straight on shot, but look at the OPGI one and you can see the difference between the Carter and the Rochester.

The original seems to have a 90 degree bend just before the fitting where it screws into the carburetor thermostat coil housing.
