I just retorqued everything on the manifold and lower uppipes didn't check the top ones yet. Should I have changed all the gaskets?

Well son of a bitch lol I am going to check tomorrow and see where it's coming from. Should I order stock gaskets again or does someone else offer them.

I've reused gaskets on several different trucks and never once had a problem because of it. I always use a torque wrench to tighten all the bolts to the proper torque spec though.

I agree Josh I had reused my gaskets 3 times and on the 3rd time one pinched i have def. over tightened them just because getting back there is a giant PITA :D

This is the third time they had to come off I torqued everything to the specs. Sounds like its coming from the drivers side. I really dont want to pull all this shit apart again though :(

I have had mine on and off many times. There the only part that I never tq. But I do keep the manifold to up pipe gaskets and up pipe to turbo and the manifold gaskets in stock.
