Hi all,
While my engine is out, I'd like to take the manifolds off (wish I had some CJ's to put on!! don't we all!!), have the surface machined nice and smooth and put new gaskets b/t them and heads. I know from the factory they did not some w/gaskets but right now there are some old rusty thin metal gasket deals b/t them. I am thinking of Mr. Gaskets? Anyone have any better ideas or know the best place to get a set of gaskets from? I had slight exhaust leak on my old 390Gt cpe and it got pretty annoying. The new FB doesn't have one, if it does it is soo minor I can't hear it! However, while the motor is out I want to make sure I don't have to worry about a leak ever surfacing!
tia,
