Exhausting question
After driving with a headache for a month... I finally climbed underneath and discovered my right side exhaust manifold has a 2-inch crack in it.
I'm looking for suggestions. Who carries a good quality exhaust manifold for the L-48? #3932461 GM. I'm replacing both sides plus new studs, bolts, gaskets etc.
I'm reusing my A.I.R. tubes...per C.A.R.B. requirements here in California...but does anybody sell new replacement tube sets?
Thanks.

Welding cast exhaust manifolds is like nailing particle board...Just doesn't hold up to real-world use. Just replace them.
Let me check my stock. I might have the manifolds and tubes laying around.

Sounds like my old work truck. The whole exhuast leeked and i was always tired. Then when i replaced the engine and exhuast it felt like i could work all day in the sun. Then shortly after the transmission took a dump and i just bought a new truck.
