Hi Luke,
Biff the manifold gasket.
Use high temperature rtv (silicon ) on the exhaust and Locktite Master Gasket on the inlet.
When you apply these run the edge of your finger arond the inner and outer edges to take any excess off as when you bolt it up it will squash out and you dont want a residue spilling into your ports in particular.
This works a treat and I have used this sealing system for years.
Cheers
Dave
