Yes, I know its tuesday BUT! I took these pictures yesterday ha-ha. Anways on to the leaky manifold. As most of the people who have seen and heard the truck know, it's louder than most other trucks. We've known we had an exhaust leak since day one and I quote "Hey dad I like the sound of the truck!" Dad:"It's an exhaust leak" Me:"Oh.... Oh well still sounds cool". Anyways on with the story. We thought the manifold was either 1. loose on the block or 2. had a bad gasket. What we saw when we took off the heat riser was quite a shocker (I'll post a before heat riser removal and after). There was a huge crack in the manifold!!! HUGE! The only thing keeping it quiet was the darn heat shield which was burned to a crisp.
