Looks normal? The engine itself looks brand new... minor flaking on the underside... there was a nest of mices in the boat so they chewed things here and there... I read one article about a mouse getting inside the engine through the exhaust and causing rust from its urine to seize the engine... ever hear of that??

So the exhaust manifold looks ok?? I was about to order new gaskets..

I ordered that socket that you guys had the link to summit racing.. I hope it was the right one...1/2"?

I will take some more pix and post...

between electronics , rod lockers , lights new custom seat and complete trailer rebuild.. I am 6 months $4500k into this and there is no turning back... this motha effer is going to run one way or the other !!!....
