Exhaust Manifold ?

[noselo77]

Just wondering,my buddy just bought a OFNA picco maxx .26 with a new Dynamite 053 sidepipe.does the exhaust manifold gasket that comes with pipe fit the engine or do you need to modify it??????????????????:\

It will not fit properly and will take a bit of modding since the Picco .26 has a smaller exhaust port.

How can I modify it,if anybody has any ideas I would greatly appreciate it.Thank You

I have never tried putting a full sized manifold on there...but it I was going to rig something up what I would do is take a .12-.18 silicone header gasket and put it on then take a .21 sized gasket and put it over the smaller sized gasket to hope to make a seal. If it does fit snug then your are good to go! I "think" it will work.(no guarantees expressed or implied; frickenjoey is a registered trademark of frickenjoey enterprises)

I just ordered the same motor and exhaust, I ordered these 2 gaskets and am going to put one on top of the other to seal it.

I don't have them yet but I believe these are the right ones.
