RE: tips on removing exhaust manifold on '68 428CJ

Dear Mike, thanks so much for your reply. Dropping the motor mounts was the secret I was looking for - THANKS! I kept thinking they would slide out the back and just wouldn't clear. But once I had the motor mounts out of the way, the manifold pretty much just fell out the bottom. If you have a minute, could you write back and tell me what steps you took to eliminate the exhaust leak? I have taken the manifold in and had it planed as much as possible and then a really good speed shop here in town recommended using a high temp copper gasket sealer and some good Felpro gasket to try and take care of the last little gaps. Do you have any other thoughts? Thanks again for the great help.
Jeff
