Hello,
I have a 98' BY model 5.7L GSi and just had the Osco risers and manifolds sand blasted and surfaces done and have the new Sierra gaskets that came with them.
I would like to know what other people are doing to ensure the riser/manifold connection gets sealed properly?
the volvo manual says to torque the bolts 12-18 ft.lbs. which seems to light to me for 3/8" bolts, also what about sealants?
thank you for your help.
