Product Details & Specifications
Exhaust Manifold Kit (3pc Sealed Assembly) Detroit Diesel Series 60 Engines

Fits Non-EGR Detroit Diesel, Freightliner & Western Star 12.7L and 14.0L Engines produced before 2003   

Single Piece Upgrade! The sections of this manifold are pre-joined or "Sealed." This means all three components have been perfectly aligned on a jig and glued together at the factory in order to allow the manifold to be machined absolutely flat on both sides. You will not need to connect the sections upon installation. It is important to understand that the sealer used is intended to hold the pieces together for production purpose only and not intended to stop temporary leaks between the manifold sections. Please read our entire product description in order to obtain a full understanding of the break-in process, or if you encounter any issues with leaking upon initial installation.
 
Please note: Before Ordering, please ensure that your engine requires Center Section Number 23514898 or 23532122, which is a Medium / Angled Turbo Mount Center Section. If you are unsure, we would be happy to assist. Just call us with your Engine Serial Number

Is your brand new exhaust manifold leaking already?!

Don't worry! Small leaks between fresh slip-fit sections is completely normal. This is temporary. Even pre-joined or manifolds sourced directly from OE manufacturers can leak between sections. Gaskets between inner and outer manifold sections are now a thing of the past. They have proven to disintegrate through countless heat cycles during the life of an engine. Manufacturers now rely on exhaust "Soot" to fill small voids, which has proven to provide a permanent seal that you'll never have to worry about. 

One of our most reputable exhaust manifold manufacturers states that it generally takes a minimum of 1,000 miles for enough "Soot" from exhaust to begin building up between the sections in order start to provide a nice leak-free barrier. This could take as long as 3,000-6,000 miles if your manifold is:
  1. Ceramic coated, due to soot having a more difficult time settling on the slipperier surface or
  2. Exposed to higher than normal Exhaust Gas Temperatures as a result of an higher power engine tune. Higher EGT's do a better job of burning off soot, so it will take longer to create a seal. 
Tech Tip - We have had several well-respected mechanics state that, regardless of the application, they always use a 1/8" bead of high temp (2000 degree) sealing product like "Rutland Hi-Temp Stove and Gasket Cement" to join manifold sections during installation. (Between inner and outer sections only) Once cured, the use of this product immediately acts as a barricade to provide a leak-proof seal, speeding up he permanent joining process at manifold seams. Products like Rutland Hi-Temp Sealant are very affordable and can be purchased online or at just about any local hardware store.
