[QUOTE="TimberTim, post: 436922, member: 20208"] straight edge the mating surface of both your exhaust and intake manifold. I found both of mine to be out of tolerance and used my 48" floor mounted Belt sander to dress the mating surfaces. cranking down the bolts to seal a crooked exhaust manifold is a prim reason for a cracked exhaust manifold ! Not to worry if you've already installed your manifolds, you can address this concern when you remove you manifolds to replace your Expansion Plugs ( Freeze Plugs) That you should have done when you had the manifolds off in the first place !!!!!
