Well yes and no, but let's get into this elbow at the top of the manifold first. I see in the parts manual that it is, in fact, a threaded elbow but is listed as an "exhaust pipe reducer" and if memory serves me was flared at the pipe end. Trying to think of a comparable iron pipe equivalent I might have seen over the years. You think this would be at the plumbing supply? That would solve a lot of problems. I shouldn't have any trouble getting them apart. I have a lot of resources available to me in that regard.
Now...field ready? There have been setbacks. But, yes...I am close. Right side of tractor is complete. Left side will be when I get the manifold resolved. Mrs H will help be with the fan and belts when she gets home today and then I can put the rad back on. Rear is mostly complete, have to hook up the brakes. I have a complete wire harness for it and will put that on. I guess if the holiday were not this week I could say that I would be hitting the starter button by next weekend. I would LIKE to drop the fast hitch over to the sand blaster tomorrow but don't know. Will cost a little but I am DONE with the drill and wire wheel for a while. Painting that will be easy enough if I heat up the shop first. Realistically, I will have this done just in time to start hitting the desk hard...or not. It ran fine when I took it apart...hope that is in my favor.
Holiday, work, and basketball season is in full swing. Time is not on my side. Keeping busy over here, that's for sure!
