charliechitlins Posted September 19, 2011 Report Share Posted September 19, 2011 Plain old silicone. Don't you need "high temp"? Won't it burn out? That won't work! Blah, blah... I've been using it for over 25 years and had a repair shop for several of those years. I've used it on hundreds of exhaust pipes and manifolds. Bought it right from the hardware store in the big ol' tube and put it in the caulking gun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pschrauber Posted September 20, 2011 Report Share Posted September 20, 2011 hi all whats the best sealant for the manifold? You don't need any sealant. I would take and took the thick standard metal cladded packing that comes between cylinder and manifold, This works together with proper tightened screws, (4), works fine for your 199a. Between the the front and the rear part of the exhaust you have to install O-rings, the rest is done by the spring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
