Well I've figured out my fuel rack problem with the help of Rob and Garth but I have another roadblock now. I removed the old exhaust system which was patched a million times and thought I could simplify it with some new galvanized tubing. The bottom flange that bolts to the exhaust manifold hits the top of the frame and the main airline from the compressor. The exhaust manifold turns down and to the rear at a 45 degree angle. The flange and tubing that was on it was 4" pipe. I bought a new piece and after cleaning everything up, I could not get the flange to correctly bolt up to the exhaust manifold. I want to know if anybody has any pics of the engine and exhaust system. I don't know if the original exhaust manifold was changed and if the 4" tubing is not the original size. Also I noticed the dipstick and oil filler tube had to by pushed over to the driver side to remove the exhaust flange. I would appreciate any comments or pics if anybody has some, Thanks. Actually any interior pics would be helpful also..

Will trythat. Also does the rack have its own oil supply or does the engine oil circulate through the rack for lubrication?

I've recently been trying to get my 57 H-63 fired up. I got fuel to four injectors and it fired but was running rough, too be expected. There was no throttle response when I moved the linkage nor the fuel shutoff valve. I took the side cover off of the rack and noticed the #1 and #4 plungers and springs were stuck in the up/closed position. This would explain my fuel delivery issue. I hosed them down with some PB blast in hopes to free up whatever is holding them up. I don't want to bang on them to free them up. Any tricks? What could be causing my fuel shutoff valve to not be working. I would like to see a detailed schematic of the inner workings if any has one. Thanks.
