I am replacing the exhaust manifold gaskets and would like to info from other folks that have performed that task. I expect to buy the copper coated gaskets from Jim K.
1. One of the manifolds is cracked. Fortunately I have another pair. Are these repairable?
2. The exhaust system did not have manifold to header pipe springs. Does someone here have them to sell or do I buy elsewhere? They seem to be readily available.
3. Is there any advantage to use socket head bolts instead of the regular ones?
4. Other than making sure that the mating surfaces are clean, are there other tips I should be aware of?
Thanks
