I found two badly deformed exhaust seals when I pulled the pipes off the manifolds.
Any tips or tricks to making sure the seals and pipes seat correctly? I'm considering a small drop of glue/sealent to stick the copper seal and pipes together properly - hoping this helps with proper alignment when I bolt the pipes into the manifold. |

If you're gonna file the pipes, you MUST file them together, not one port at a time. The Cap'n
