GM MLS 6.0 gaskets measure 4.045 ID

I'm putting it back together with the MLS's and o rings. I'm giving it one Last shot.

Mark -- studs or bolts?

I used the ARP J19 studs and over-torqued 15 ft/lbs (over MLS gaskets -- dunno what you could do with copper).

Man you must really be stressed to switch over to the Mexican beer mid week!

Hopefully it works out I would hate to see you pull the turbo off. Good luck
