50897, Exhaust Manifold Gasket Leak!
Posted by el2oCz, Jun-22-03 01:15 AM
Hey what's up guys. I've been having alot of problem with my exhaust manifold gasket. It leaks on me everytime. I bought 3 gasket this week and I burnt all three. I think it maybe my screws getting loose all the time. I wanted to know what screws you guys use for the exhaut manifold. HRC gave me some crappy allen key screws that loosens everytime. So tell me whats up. Thanks.:thumbsup

i'm sure they'd fit fine

about the leak, you may have a warped manifold.

I don't think it's warp. It's just that everytime i race the car, all the moving and vibration loosens the nuts. BUT! i hope its not warped!x(

Don't you guys have a merwins near you? I got all of my studs from them for $8.00. Haven't had a problem since. I don't know how much the studs are from RRE.....cheaper than that?

Tell em to piss off and go to a Chrylser dealership. Talons had em too. Glad I found this thread. I almost forgot I need to get some. Don't we need like 7 or something? :)

ARP, part number 441-1301. This is the best solution for the problem. Next time you have the manifold off, lay it ports down on a known flat surface (if it rocks in any direction its a warp) This can easily be taken care of by a machine shop. Just remember to have them stress relieve the manifold(basically get it red hot and letting it cool slowly)late mike
