boosted280 Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 I went to install the new manifold bolts and turbo exhaust manifold the other day and couldnt. Turns out the front exhaust port is warped up about a 1/4”. Has anyone else experienced this and how did you fix it? I am nervous to heat up the manifold because of it being cast I don’t want it to crack. Any suggestions or solutions are appreciated.

Mine fits ok, but you scared the hell out of me. sorry, I can’t help on bending cast iron, but at least i bumped you up.

Brad-ManQ45 Posted November 10, 2022 Share Posted November 10, 2022 It is cast steel - not cast iron. Many have welded Eastgate provisions with not problems... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
