[Tigers] air cleaner stud

[Ron Fraser]

Jim

                The stock stud has a ½” hex pad which is .19” thick for the top cover standoff to rest upon.

I have not check this clearance with the stock part but I will when I get a chance.

This stock stud on the Holley carb should work but I don’t know.

I don’t know.  But I do know that when I first got the Tiger, with stock air cleaner, but Holley carb, I overtightened the air cleaner nut.  This caused the top to bow, and hit air intake tubes in the carbs.  The car ran, but not well.  It took a while, but I was sure glad when I solved that one.  I don’t know if the stock carb doesn’t have this problem, or if the modified parts prevent this from happening.  But, I thought I’d mention it in case it helps make sure the fit is right.

Anyone have pictures of these original stock parts?

 

1224657                Stud – air cleaner

9550040                Nut – ¼” UNC

9067015                Washer, ¼” plain              ¼” x ½” OD          16-gauge steel

 

Also looking for the length of the stud.

The stud I have is 3.78” long.

 

I originally thought the stud was a modified Ford part but looking at the stud it looks formed to this length not cut.

There is no Ford part # associated with the air cleaner stud part only the Rootes # - made me curious.

 

Thanks

To all – stay well, stay safe
