Default '60 Ignition shielding ??

I have a ? about the ignition shielding on a '60.... there are small 90 degree brackets that hold the lower shields next to the head/plugs. do I use the exh. manifold bolts to mount these, or do they attach some other way?

Attach the brackets with the manifold bolts, but do not tighten until the shields are in place with the wing bolts tightened. After you tighten the manifold bolts, the shields can be reinstalled without a big hassle getting everything to line up at plug change time.
