    Header or stock exhaust manifold ?

    I just went through the same decision. I have a 1971, fj40 with a column shift. I decided to go with the header. I went with the Tri-Y header from Marks Offroad. Very happy with the quality, I had to do some minor fabrication of the column shift linkage but it was easy and everything works...

    header and 3 on the tree

    I'll give Mark a call later today to figure out what I'm going to do. I purchased the Tri-Y header so it may work. I would like to keep the column shift it shifts great and I like the retro feel, plus I like the space on the Tranny cover.

    Would you fix this or replace it?

    mine looked the same. Take it to a radiator shop and get them to pressure test it. Wire brush it and paint it with rust preventive paint, top coat it and move on. I did line mine with an epoxy coating on the interior seemed to work well, you could do that to.

    Broke the stud in exhaust manifold? Headers?

    problem is its too late. I welded a nut on and broke the stud with just a little bit left. Plus the other side crack where the stud goes in so it a lost cause. Needs to be replaced. How hard of a job is this. I imaging just getting the old bolts out is the bulk of the work. :mad::mad:
