Re: Exhaust manifold Reply #79 – May 25, 2022, 11:41:07 am Good to hear. Glad to see you replaced hardware. So I understand it came with a lifetime warranty on installation. Broken off flush exhaust hardware is no fun at all. But I've made a lot of money over the years removing them Scott Quote Selected 2 Likes
