Slant 6 Vibration
Do the remflex gasket! I fought leaks for awhile on my slant. My manifolds didn't appear to be warped but new gaskets always failed quickly. Even doubled up gaskets failed. I cleaned to engine off and painted it up in the engine bay, painted the manifolds and installed the remflex gasket knowing it wouldn't leak. It held up perfectly until I pulled the slant for a V8 swap. Slants are pretty quiet little engines when sealed up and tuned up properly. A valve adjustment and basic ignition tune up is cheap and makes an incredible difference on a neglected slant.
AAAAND yeah that's ford blue, I know. I knew it would one day be pulled and replaced so special ordering Chrysler paint seemed like a waste of time. The high temp black exhaust paint help up perfectly with daily driver abuse also. Kind of wish I left the slant in place instead of having the car sitting in the garage while I chase parts for the V8.
