Hi, I'm going to get my inlet maifold skimmed tomorrow because the suface is dented in places and it doesnt want to seal, will this be a problem when it comes to tightening? should it be exactly the same thickness as the exhaust manifold flanges? also is there any assembly paste I can use on the manifold gasket or should this be done dry only?

Cheers, Kav

Mitsi Evo 7, 911, Cossie. & all the chavs ...... won no problem

Kav just get it skimmed FLAT! ........
no assembley past required.... just the gasket

the thickness is no detriment as long as no more than a couple of mm is removed

for things like manifolds and thermostat housings I have found that an old breezeblock and some water works well.

I heard of one guy decking a block using a concrete path,a length of rope and a girlfriend.

She sat on the block and he dragged her up and down the path using the rope.
Necessity is the mother of invention,as they say.

Sorry O/T
