Can someone post photos of the correct locations for the exhaust hardware? It appears they are different from regular big block? I have a kit for 68 big block (actually ended up by accident collecting 2 from 2 different companies over the years of buying). They both come with 2 long and 2 shorter sleeve nuts. Did some hunting and see now specific kits for 383 A-body that show 1 long and 4 short.

I am not clear which one would get the long and short two me there should be 2 long on passenger side and 1 long and 2 short on drivers side.

Also, what is used on the driver's flange to the head pipe? Standard exhaust flange bolt/nut appear to be too long for the top hole as the manifold has that funky bend to it.

The funny thing about science is that if you change one miniscule parameter you change the entire outcome to the way you want it.
