    Default Flange Gasket and Exhaust Manifold Gasket

    hey all
    just wondering if anyone has any pictures on how to change gaskets (flange and Exhaust Manifold) on a 83 VH Commodore. Got told pretty simple to do since mechanics would charge a arm and a leg. Just need to know what bolts to unto etc any pictures or anything like that would be very helpful thanks

    The VH has the twin pipes off the flange, it can be a bit tricky. Be careful with the studs, they can break.

    The carby has to come off to do the manifold gasket as the middle two studs are under the plate on the base of the carby.

    You will need one flange gasket and then the double gasket that goes onto the manifold. And the manifold to head gasket.

    Assuming it is a 6 cyl.
