    That was a great video and now I know Pabst Blue Ribbon is a good conductor of stupidity. And like the old Gi Joe cartoons used to say, "knowing is half the battle". Wish I could like these videos over and over but......

    what would happen if you never fixed your cracked exhaust manifold?

    the cold air being sucked into those cracks is said to, over time cause warping of the head, but that's just what a few people have told me, it could be an old wives tale.

    Pretty sure Mitchell is right about the CO. Knowing the effects of CO poisoning I know that the cracks on my manifold I am getting poisoned. Now that it's winter and I can't keep the windows down I'm gonna have to fix it...

    Tony Saprano mine did the same thing. My mechanic friend said that it’s the weight of the exhaust fatigues the manifold over time. He says that once it cracks, it’s in a better position. When the cracks are welded, it’s in a better position with less stress. Or something like that. He wasn’t allowed to weld a customer’s manifold so he’d weld the broken ones and install them for friends when theirs cracked.

    Weight. Heat cycles . Exhaust taking a bump. Different engine and trans mounts. No exhaust flex. Etc

    I think there's a misprint on the torque pattern display you used. I believe the spec for bolts 6 and 7 are 23 N.m (17 ft. lbs), not 23 ft. lbs. I'm by no means an expert, so I could be wrong.

    +JonDinCT This is from a service manual, so if it's a typo, all us mechanics have been doin' it wrong for years... But to be honest, the difference between 17flbs and 23flbs on a steel head is negligible. Thanks for the comment though.
