RE: [Chrysler300] Leaking

["Henry Schleimer" <henry.schleimer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I had a problem with leaking on my Australian hemi 6 exhaust manifold.
Similar to a slant six but probably a bit longer.  They bend like a banana,
particularly near the hot end at number six where the port overlap was a
good eighth of an inch .  I was in a hurry to get the car going again and
could be bothered to get the manifolds machined (on 4 surfaces since they
bolt together as well).  I just used two gaskets instead of the original one
and a bit of filing on the rear port.  Hasn't leaked again.  For a V8, I
would get the face machined, but if you are in a hurry....

HELP , HELP !!! Over the last year I have developed leaks in the dr. side
ex. manifold. This is the third time. Changed the gaskets twice, going on
three. Sat. morning the paper , had some REMFLEX Ex. gaskets advertised that
"guaranteed" not to leak. Anyone had any experiance with these? Now for the
big problem!! While removeing the manifold tht bolt hole broke off the end
of the manifold. Does anyone have a spare driverside ex. manifold casting
,for a 413 crossram??? I have it at the welders, now to try to fix it , but
would like to have a good one as a spare, in case the weld does not work
out. I had Felpro and a summit all copper gaskets and all leaked some. Gary
in so. Oregon, with a loud and leaking Big G
