It seems like it is really hard to get the horizontal gasket that is below the carb area to seal between the stock intake and exhaust manifolds where they meet. I am not able to upgrade either one at this time, and I can feel the air poking out as it is idling. I tightened the one outer bolt a little then I tightened one of the two inner bolts and of course it snapped off. I just got the truck running good, is at this point in the manifold possibly going to burn a valve? I mean, the exhaust is going into the manifold, then back up toward the carb to heat it and then leaking out there, I am thinking that is far enough away to where it might just be annoying but not damaging. I am definitely going to get it fixed asap, but it might be a week should park it until then or will it be fine until then?
thanks guys
