Vetmman cross over exhaust is mounted to the engine
Front view of the exhaust
Metal gaskets are used, and the bolts are covered using anti-seize
Close up view of the metal gasket and bolts
This is the anti-seize I used, bought from auto store
The exhaust hangers are installed per instruction. The gap between two steel tubes is probably bigger than the 1/4" spec in drawing, but I will see if it will cause any problem after engine run. the worst will be adding a very short tube in between to reduce the flex rubber length
The hanger support tab is mounted to oil sump flange
The gap between the exhaust and bottom skin is about 3/4". Hope this will be enough
