Fred,

Before I respond to your query I need you to answer a few questions:

Did you apply black RTV:

a) between the fiber gasket and the head
b) between the stainless steel plate and the head
c) between the fiber gasket and the manifold
d) between the stainless steel plate and the manifold
e) between the front and rear sealing surfaces between the manifold and the block

A yes or no to each of these will suffice, providing this information will let me know just HOW stuck your manifold is!

Regards,
Rob M.

Help! I am in a world of hurt. Installed Springfield exhaust block off
plates and I guess one of the gaskets moved enough on installation that I
have a major water leak . The black RTV has now set so hard that I can't
get the manifold off. Any suggestions ??
Fred
