Yea - same with ARP ones.
Though I was hoping the "up side" was that they fastened themselves ...
Yea - same with ARP ones.You know those washers have an 'up' side and a 'down' side
MY experience is stock exhaust manifolds tend to use studs, where headers are ALOT easier to do with bolts.....When installed exhaust headers I have a bunch of bolts and studs. Is there a method to where the bolts vs studs go?
All I use on my turbo headersThe studs go into the outside holes, the idea is/was the outside gasket hole were slotted, install studs, hang the headers, drop the gaskets from the top onto the studs, install bolts, tighten as needed.
A lot of members just use red high temp gasket stuff, at least some claim to.
Wut stuff?A lot of members just use red high temp gasket stuff,

Teenager with a drivers licence and a cell phone.How many of us are at a soccer tournament all day today and not working on their toilet (mechanic at my first job called all cars toilets)?
My 17yo just (kids these days) got his license and my wife won’t let him drive himself like 45 min away. Reason being she doesn’t think he can look at his phone for directions while driving. I’m not sure she is wrong, but none the less out the door this morning like 745am and won’t be home till like 6Pm. Not to mention it’s red RTV temps out here today.
So yea - thanks for listening to me complain. That’s the update!

My condolences.... The only good thing about funerals is it seems the only time family seems to be together and you see friends you havent seen in a long time.....Weekend over. Tomorrow morning funeral of a friend my age who didnt wake up last week. Kinda stinky here, so if I get to the car later tonight it will feel like a relief.

How is it possible, with all the super amazing Fox Body knowledge here, that no one ... and I mean no one ... noticed my mistake? Whats this, 2 months later and I find out?Gasket shopping list:

Any got a AC delete and Smog delete serpentine belt they like? I believe its either 72.5" or 73". Im having trouble finding a part number. If I cant, ill prolly just go to AZ to get what they have. Maybe these?
Deciding against under drive pulley's for this go around. Going to save some money there. Frankly, if Im going to spend more money I want it to be on new roller rockers.
What else am I missing? I havnt decided about the MAF and TB yet. I will wait until ive got everything assembled to figure that out. Might be more money there
Don't buy any of that. I like the Percys mls gaskets for the headers.Is this the right exhaust manifold gasket? Im not sure about the down pipe/flange o-ring gasket stuff? Is that needed? I do not recall removing any of that when I disassembled.
