I have a slight problem with the exhaust gaskets on my 582 spitting oil.

They don't seem to be loose but oil seems to escape and it tends to be

messy. Has anyone else had this issue and dealt with it successfully? The

manifold is currently held by two bolts per cylinder but I can do three plus

a stud/nut is it will help.

Hi Dave

You will need all 4 bolts per cylinder.

My model 2 uses 3 bolts per cylinder/manifold and that seems to work. New or older gaskets?

If you use a small amount of red/orange high temp RTV

on both sides of the gasket it won't leak the excess oil.

With the exhaust off, rub the engine side across sand paper

on a flat surface to see if its warped.

Also check the oil pump lever for proper alignment, you may

be using to much oil.

Impossible Heinz. Only 3 of those holes can be accessed on each cylinder when Y pipe is in place. Hi - temp RTV and 2 bolts, diagonally spaced and evenly torqued should solve Dave's problem.

 Marco,

     I have a stud in the "inaccessible" location and can get a nut and lock washer on it so I end up with all four working.

I have three bolts and one stud with a locking nut  on the forth for each side.  It just takes a little extra time to the  stud-nut combination, cut it's secure and leak free.
