[Supras] Supras Digest, Vol 37, Issue 7

[Rockey Fox]

It's a PITA and most likely due to the threads in the aluminum head stripping out. I installed heli-coil inserts in mine when I replaced the exhaust manifold gasket with the engine in the car and ended up buying a 90 degree drill motor to get to the rear holes to drill for the inserts. 
I haven't yet discovered a way to keep my turbo mounting nuts tight either if anyone has suggestions?

have a leak in the exhaust somewhere. My wife and I could smell exhaust 
fumes while driving.  I can't hear any leaks but what I did notice was some 
white areas where the exhaust is bolted on to the engine.  I figure it's the 
exhaust gasket.
Has anyone experienced this?  How hard is it to change that gasket on a 
turbo?

Thanks
