Hi guys,
I'm getting ready to bolt the exhaust manifolds onto my 3.5 for my factory
MGB-GT V-8. The factory recommends 13 foot-pounds for the bolt torque, but
that is for the original specification without manifold gaskets (the cast
iron manifolds bolt right up to the aluminum ports). I am retrofitting the
manifold gaskets, as recommended in an MG V-8 Workshop Note from the MGCC.
Does anyone know if a US-spec Land Rover or Range Rover which uses the
exhaust manifold gaskets takes a different torque on the bolts? I don't
have any Rover workshop manuals, only the original MGB-GT V-8 supplement.
Thanks in advance,
Paul Kile
