When r+r ing the manifolds be sure to clean allen heads with small 
screwdriver or paperclip and use allen socket.  Tap it in with a hammer, to seat it 
fully.  I had a couple of manifold bolts that were rounded by the previos owner.  
I used the progressively larger serrated wrench (the kind for the drive flange 
bolts) and hammered them in till I managed to get them out.  Pounding 12 
point sockets onto rounded fasteners is the only good use I have found for them. I 
almost threw them all out before I discovered that trick.
