Try not using gaskets. I've not had any leaks on several cars with factory exh. 2 machined surfaces make for a dandy seal. mv -----Original Message----- From: Chrysler300@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To: Chrysler300 Sent: 6/16/2006 11:07 AM Subject: [Chrysler300] Wedge Ex. Manifolds I can't seem to keep exhaust leaks from springing up on our '62 300 413 block. The heads and manifolds were surfaced at the rebuild, 25,000 miles ago. I put in all new studs and use flat steel washers with brass nuts. I torque to the manual specs and re-torque once heated up, then cooled down. I think I use FelPro manifold gaskets. Any secrets I should try? Matt Allyn Exec. in Charge of Prod.
