Drivers side. Noisy ticking noise, suspect manifold gasket. Any suggestions on the best gaskets to use?
Real Steel stock Victor Reinz gaskets, will they be suitable? I have old cast manifolds, so i'm guessing its not the best of surfaces to seal up.

I got in there and nipped them up ok, so access not a problem. Not bad at idle, but when you press the loud pedal you can hear it blowing in there. Drivers side exhaust seems to vibrate too, whilst passenger side stays still...
Could be blowing from the downpipe, i'll get it on the ramp this week and have a good look.
