   you'd feel it with your hand, obviously being careful not to burn it
   
   use some paper.. it'll flutter

   Is it an easy job to change the gasket?

   yeah, not too bad, standard manifold i take it? if so, even easier! always good to replace all the studs and nuts whilst you are at it.

   Yes, still standard though I plan to SS the exhaust. Might be best to wait until get the new one else I'll be doing twice. lol
