Default What are these parts?
My 72 Coupe 350 came with these in a box. I guess they are heat shields? Any pics with them in place would be very useful.

The upper two aren't ignition heat shields. They're the exhaust manifold heat collector pre-heat stove inner and outer sections. They go on the left side exhaust manifold.
