I have a 1979 spit with a 1974 1500 engine! I have some exhaust noise from the 
exhaust 
area. I have replaced the manifold gasket with no relief. I now believe that 
the 4 pipe 
header may be bad. What are my choices? Do I replace the whole front end 
exhaust system?
Remove and have the header welded? I am a novice at this (primarily a tune-up 
artist) 
and any advice would be Appreciated. 

I wrote a while ago about a high rev miss. I got much advice to check  points, 
timing, 
coil, fuel filter etc. I did.... and lo and bohold the problem turned out to be 
a bad 
vacuum advance line. A 50 cent piece of hose fixed all my problems. Live and 
Learn!

Thanks,

Dennis
