Compared with the normal gaskets between the exhaust manifold and the cylinderhead, those from Vulcan Engines are five times fatter. The other thing they do different is the fixing. Whereas originally stud bolts come out of from the head, the manifold is now fixed with Allen head bolts. Except for one (middle right) which I had to change for a hex head due to limited access.
Prior to assembly I recut the threads to prevent the new bolts from biting too much into the head.
Cheers.
