Title: twisted wedge exhaust match
Post by: t.birdsc on April 11, 2009, 08:51:27 PM
I was looking at the exhaust ports on a set of twisted wedge heads and noticed the port didn't match the exhaust gasket and header.
Shouldn't this be honed out to match?

Twisted Wedge street heads should have the same exhaust ports as regular Ford heads. The ports may not be the same size as the exhaust gaskets but that is normal. You can always "gasket match" the ports if you want.

To what header? If your trying to match stock HO headers they won't match.
Most exhaust gaskets I used haven't interfered with anything.
