I think that repair will hold although I don't think them bolts you used to hold them on will, You will be spending time replacing Manifold Gaskets, It looks like you might get about 500 miles out of them,Gaskets, Good luck
Thanks I'll take all the Good luck I can get(I hate that other kind of luck), and of course I hope you're wrong.I passed the first road test last weekend, 350 miles, 10 of it off road in the desert above Barstow.

After a bumpy drive through a sandy wash and then up a hill I shook her pretty good. The next morning I found Ice cycles and a leak in the bathroom.

I had to fix a loose fresh water fitting on the toilet. An easy fix.
The engine never ran so smooth and My mileage went from 6 to 9 miles a gal. I thought I was using more than I should.
I need to ask, why are the new bolts bad?
And I got the gaskets at O'Reillys for $18. They are bad Too?


After Breakfast Shots from our Hosts. There was no driving that day.
