<VV> Fw: Exhaust port tube fit to manifold

[Matt Nall]

I have to replace some the exhaust port tubes in the heads of the engine I am 
working on, because the donut seats are torn. I have some used tubes.  
According to the 1961 shop manual the tube ends are a press fit into the exhaust 
manifold (as well as into the head). The used tubes I have are a sloppy fit in 
the head (missing a press fit by as much as 0.031 inch).  

=====================================================================
  Cut the Donut seat off one of the sloppy ones and slip it over to take up space!
