 removing exhaust mid section - need some direction
long story short, I'm removing the exhaust mid section on my m44 Ti because i need to do some cutting and drilling on the manifold as well as replacing the gasket.
Where the mid section connects to the rear, I see two bolts that have compression springs. seems straightforward enough. spray everything down with PB blaster, remove all bolts, mid section comes out, do the work i need to do, mid section goes back in.
my only concern is i haven't the foggiest clue if there is any sort of seal, gasket, ring, etc between the mid section and the rear section that I might have to replace once it is out. I can't seem to find any information online regarding this part of the exhaust. i would hate to get everything taken out only to find that I need to wait a couple of days for a part I didn't know I needed.
any information you guys/girls might have would be greatly appreciated
cheers! |
