EXHAUST MANIFOLD
DESCRIPTION
The exhaust manifolds are log style with a patented
flow enhancing design to maximize performance. The
exhaust manifolds are made of high silicon molybdenum
cast iron. A perforated core graphite exhaust manifold
gasket is used to improve sealing to the cylinder head.
The exhaust manifolds are covered by a three layer lam-
inated heat shield for thermal protection and noise
reduction. The heat shields are fastened with a torque
prevailing nut that is backed off slightly to allow for the
thermal expansion of the exhaust manifold.

fuel line (Refer to 14 - FUEL SYSTEM/FUEL DELIV-
ERY/QUICK CONNECT FITTING - STANDARD
PROCEDURE).
(9) Disconnect accelerator linkage and if so
equipped, the speed control and transmission kick-
down cables.
(10) Remove coil pack and bracket (Fig. 8).
(11) Disconnect the coil wires.
(12) Disconnect heat indicator sending unit wire.
(13) Disconnect heater hoses and bypass hose.
(14) Remove upper intake manifold and throttle
body as an assembly (Refer to 9 - ENGINE/MANI-
FOLDS/INTAKE MANIFOLD - REMOVAL).
(15) Remove cylinder head covers and gaskets
(Refer to 9 - ENGINE/CYLINDER HEAD/CYLIN-
DER HEAD COVER(S) - REMOVAL).
(16) Remove the EGR tube. Discard the gasket, for
right side only.
(17) Remove lower intake manifold (Refer to 9 -
ENGINE/MANIFOLDS/INTAKE MANIFOLD -
REMOVAL). Discard the flange side gaskets and the
front and rear cross-over gaskets.
(18) Disconnect exhaust pipe from exhaust mani-
fold.
(19) Remove exhaust manifolds and gaskets (Refer
to 9 - ENGINE/MANIFOLDS/EXHAUST MANIFOLD
- REMOVAL).
(20) Remove rocker arm assemblies and push rods
(Refer to 9 - ENGINE/CYLINDER HEAD/ROCKER
ARM / ADJUSTER ASSY - REMOVAL). Identify to
ensure installation in original locations.(21) Remove the head bolts from each cylinder
head and remove cylinder heads. Discard the cylin-
der head gasket.
(22) Remove spark plugs.
CLEANING
Clean all surfaces of cylinder block and cylinder
heads. Be sure material does not fall into the lifters
and surrounding valley.
Clean cylinder block front and rear gasket surfaces
using a suitable solvent.
Clean the exhaust manifold to cylinder head mat-
ing areas.
INSPECTION
Inspect all surfaces with a straightedge if there is
any reason to suspect leakage. The out-of-flatness
specifications are 0.0007 mm/mm (0.0004 inch/inch),
0.127 mm/152 mm (0.005 inch/6 inches) any direction
or 0.254 mm (0.010 inch) overall across head. If
exceeded, either replace head or lightly machine the
head surface.
The cylinder head surface finish should be
1.78-4.57 microns (15-80 microinches).
Inspect push rods. Replace worn or bent rods.
Inspect rocker arms. Replace if worn or scored.
INSTALLATION
(1) Position the new cylinder head gaskets onto
the cylinder block.
(2) Position the cylinder heads onto head gaskets
and cylinder block.
(3) Tighten the cylinder head bolts in two steps
(Fig. 9):
²Step 1ÐTighten all cylinder head bolts, in
sequence, to 58 N´m (43 ft. lbs.) torque.
²Step 2ÐTighten all cylinder head bolts, in
sequence, to 143 N´m (105 ft. lbs.) torque.
²
CAUTION: When tightening the rocker arm bolts,
make sure the piston in that cylinder is NOT at
TDC. Contact between the valves and piston could
occur.

SPECIAL TOOLS
CATALYTIC CONVERTER
DESCRIPTION - CATALYTIC CONVERTER
WARNING: THE NORMAL OPERATING TEMPERA-
TURE OF THE EXHAUST SYSTEM IS VERY HIGH.
THEREFORE, NEVER WORK AROUND OR ATTEMPT
TO SERVICE ANY PART OF THE EXHAUST SYSTEM
UNTIL IT IS COOLED. SPECIAL CARE SHOULD BE
TAKEN WHEN WORKING NEAR THE CATALYTIC
CONVERTER. THE TEMPERATURE OF THE CON-
VERTER RISES TO A HIGH LEVEL AFTER A SHORT
PERIOD OF ENGINE OPERATION TIME.
CAUTION: DO NOT remove spark plug wires from
plugs or by any other means short out cylinders.
Failure of the catalytic converter can occur due to a
temperature increase caused by unburned fuel
passing through the converter.
The stainless steel catalytic converter body is
designed to last the life of the vehicle. Excessive heat
can result in bulging or other distortion, but exces-
sive heat will not be the fault of the converter. If
unburned fuel enters the converter, overheating may
occur. If a converter is heat-damaged, correct the
cause of the damage at the same time the converter
is replaced. Also, inspect all other components of the
exhaust system for heat damage.
Unleaded gasoline must be used to avoid con-
taminating the catalyst core.
50 State emission vehicles incorporate two mini
catalytic converters located after the exhaust mani-
folds and before the inline catalytic converter.
OPERATION
The catalytic converter captures and burns any
unburned fuel mixture exiting the combustion cham-
bers during the exhaust stroke of the engine. This
process aids in reducing emissions output.
