Hi. I am replacing the exhaust manifold gaskets on my 440 engine with remflex. Are there any ideas on how to do it so I do not crack the exhaust manifolds?

Follow the instructions on the gasket package.

Torque to spec and BTW- if you crack the manifolds then it's WAAAY too tight. Remflex gaskets are some, if not the, top notch gaskets

Run the bolts down center first then out, in steps.


I want my fair share

TRY and find some COPPER GASKETS... better sealing and heat transfer
