Removed the exhaust manifold and found that the gaskets were completely rotted. Directions on sealant package were not clear. Can someone tell me the sequence for installation. Do I put sealant on block and Manifold, let dry for one hour and tighten, Thanks, MLB

I guess everyone has their own preferences, I use Copper Coat on both sides of my manifold gaskets.

Hi,
I've never tried that brand of sealer for that area John, doesn't it burn some when it gets hot.
