I'd recommend checking the exhaust manifold isn't warped. If it isn't I'd make a cut through the webs between each tube

Yes I've heard about this, think i need a new thread to try and get some pictures of how to do it, costing enough for the head job as it is

Hi, it's just a case of first putting a straight across ( 1-5 ports) the ex. manfold then see if it's flat, if it's warped take it to a local engineering firm & see if they can skim it for you (my Son & I had both ours done £40 each). The hardest part was finding someone who could clamp it at the correct angle for skimming due to it's odd shape or you can buy them skimmed & de-webbed on flea bay. We didn't cut through our webs.

Billybones,
