Hi Lyman,=C2=A0
You can get a thick Remflex gasket that should seal that manifold right up.=
=C2=A0I think Brian has those at BFE. =C2=A0There=E2=80=99s also the HP ga=
sket that moss sells. That splits the differenence between stock and really=
thick=E2=80=A6 also made to seal finicky manifolds.
Hope that helps!Dave G

Lyman figures we are running about 90 hp at the wheel. Hopefully putting it=

from this low compression engine.=C2=A0 This is the motor (and 5 speed Toyo=
