I’ve noticed that I get a slight leak from the exhaust manifold as it meets the head on my TC. The manifold is crack free but I may have introduced a small amount of distortion when I welded up a crack a few years ago.
Two thoughts occurred to me:
(1) That the copper/asbestos gasket rings available today aren’t quite up to the job possibly?
(2) I’ve read of some people slitting the plate between each branch to minimise stress between branches and allow each flange to seat properly. Would this make sense here?
What are other folks thinking on this?
