[tazmaniac]

1997 352 damon 454 driverside leaks from a quick inspection last fall before putting in storage it appears the ex. gasket has blown out probably due to a couple of studs that have broken off. Couple of questions

1. is the manifold a split manifold it appears to be in sections
2. tricks?????? removing studs
3 Do i need to replace the manifold and were can I get a parts list
4. Any other things to do, I really cant efford upgrades such as Banks.

thanks

I bought exhaust manifolds for my old 454 off Ebay. Just make sure they are they same year. I paid 60 dollars for a pair. gaskets were another 20. The manifolds themselves have a tendency to crack that was my problem. The studs arehard to remove just let them soak with pb blaster or some other rust free spray. WD 40 does nothing.I had to drill out and easy out two studs. Its not fun or easy but it can be done. Just be patient.
