John,

I recently re-installed my manifolds using the one piece asbetos steel gasket.It workedjust fine and did not need the glands.Hopefully you bolted exhaust and intake together before having them surfaced.The most difficult part of the job for me was getting the muffler-exhaust pipe to properly seal.I found a new clamp, flange, and cooper seal were the key to a good seal for me.Enjoy.

: Does anybody have any experience using the copper clad maifold gaskets?Are they better than the steel and asbetos substitute?What is the proper torque for the manifold bolts? I am having trouble finding the correct torque.Also any precautions during installation.I did have the manifold surfaces ground flat.

: Thanks,John
