This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

    If you currently have a heat riser valve this part will take its place.

    Do have any of these heat riser delete still available? I have a 1969 Buick Electra 225 with a 430 engine. If so, do you have a website or EBay?

    I do have the parts available for sale. I sell them through this site only. Price is $65.00 shipped in the US and Puerto Rico, others will add actual shipping minus $5.00. I prefer PayPal for payment but will accept a postal money order as well.

    If interested in purchasing the part , shoot me a private message here with your info. Thanks.

    Hector was it ever determined that these will work on a NH engine?

    I just happen to have a nail head heat riser from a 66 GS and one from a 67 GS. I will compare them for you

    The bolt spacing is identical and the openings are identical. The only difference is the studs in the nailhead exhaust manifolds are bigger diameter so you would have to drill out the holes in the new delete plate slightly larger. In the second picture they are stacked on top of each other.

    Hello Hector, Are the deletes still available, and will these work on a 400ci? Thanks
     
  15. Hector

    Hector '79 Buick Limited

    Thanks for the question. I will admit that I have never thought about the 400ci for this application but I will assume that it will fit. I believe, but I'm not 100% sure, that the 400 ci exhaust manifolds will fit 430 or 455's. If they all interchange then this part will fit them all.
