Re: Stock exhaust manifold removal
Definitely agree with the above. Chances are those mainfolds are rusted on very good. I still have my manifolds with broken studs still in the collectors because thats the only way they'd come out.
Re: Stock exhaust manifold removal
Yeah just spray all the bolts with something like liquid wrench and let them sit for awhile. I did this and let it sit overnight, then did another spray of all the bolts, let it sit for some more, but 2 of the bolts on the manifold collector still broke, not a big problem though. And also I found that the rear passenger bolt was already broken.. I don't know how that would happen, since the exhaust has never been taken off..
But anyways, I got all the bolts off easy besides the two on the collector!

Yea, PB blaster, a swivel socket, and alot of extensions. Mine both came out the top. Dont forget about the EGR tube. The EGR bolt is a biach. I used 2 wrenches chained together to get TQ on it.
