the worry about using exhaust sealer paste on that sort of joint is if it cracks and falls out = blowing

it was a real good seal with out anything (i put a torch inside the mani)

so the paste is just so the is something there, with out it i guess it would just leak when cold then seal up...time will tell

Happy days, comin on great now.

How come there looks as if theres loads of room at the front of your engine? Mines seems pretty close to the cross panel.


Nice HUGE filter btw. ;)

Thanks for helping me out mate, even though it hasn't happened due to my problems.

At least there is no stopping you getting it finished.
