I bought the special washers from Bob's and lubricated the gasket. Torqued the nuts to 20 ft.lbs.I guess it was too high. I'll probably try extreme heat j.b. weld until I can find a good manifold or welder.Thanks
Other than removing the exhaust manifold can a hairline crack be repaired by using cast iron furnace cement? Anyone use it on manifolds? Just wondered.I don't think J.B.Weld will hold up to the heat.Thanks
I made one this afternoon thanks to your pictures.Hobby Lobby was to only place I found locally that had the cooper.It's a little shorter than yours as they only have 4" x 10" sheets but I think it will work. Thanks.Greg
