If you are replaceing the Manifold to cylinder head gasket its also a good time to check that the surface of the exhaust manifold is level agaisnt a striaght edge, otherwise your new gasket might not last long.

I though i was being fussy when i had mine planed just to be sure, but it needed 3 goes at getting it level as it was quite badly out at one end.

I also used extreme temp RTV just to make sure it didn't bloody leak again.

( i seem to have exhaust issues on every car i own- bad luck for me maybe )

I would also replace all the studs & nuts as well...but it sounds like he's trying to do it on the cheap, or maybe I'm wrong.

He didnt say what or why he was doing it

Hello,

I just brought a whole head gasket set includes everything for head up for $140. If you just need a manifold gaskets it should not be expensive. And if you just need the manifold to exhaust then it only cost me $5. I got all new washers and nuts for both the manifold and air in take and tempostat housing (26 in total) and it cost me $27.

No reason to go second hand on these parts.

Gaskets from repco. Nuts and washers from Blacks Fasteners. Take the old gaskets to match from so they dont get it wrong.
