The Warneford single manifold had no passages for water. There was fitting
and pipe just inside the manifold flange that ran forward and connected to
the water line where the stock manifold connected. I'm pretty sure the dual
manifold I have is similarly set up. It, too, is a Warneford. It's buried in
storage along with most of my other car bits so I can check it easily.
I do wish I'd been more aware of where my "hot rod" library was stashed. At
least I could do some reading. Oh well, maybe soon. Found out this afternoon
we can expect an offer on our Arlington (DFW) house tomorrow. Hope it's one
we can accept or is realistic enough to counter.
Lord, give me patience, ;>)
