Title: Omega B 3.2 Exhaust Manifold Nuts. Drivers Side
Post by: tillers on 25 July 2020, 13:32:56

Hi All,
I have to change my exhaust manifold drivers side and would like to replace the nuts securing it to the block.
Can anyone advise what size they are please..   M8/M10?
Regards
Tillers

M8. As I recall that might also be all metal self locking. The distorted thread type.

They're M8, and you use a 13mm spanner/socket.
You can get new manifold nuts anywhere. When I did the headgaskets on mine, I replaced all the studs, nuts and downpipe nuts with new for £5 to give you some idea
