Manifold Gasket Replacement hours for the Month of Febuary are 120 hours




The two twenty inch pipes below connect to the exhaust on the engine. 



The picture below shows the exhaust.  Next to the exhaust is the coolant pipe. 


The picture below shows the 3 compressors tied into the engine.  Each compressor has an individual arm connected to the crankshaft. 



As you can see in the picture below the 6 ports of the exhaust.  Each exhaust tube weighs 8,500 lbs and has a 20" diameter.







Each one of these is a head on one side of the engine.  There is a total of 12 heads to the engine.



Below is a picture of the top of the engine block where the exhaust is placed.  Each hole is where we will be installing the new gaskets.The smaller holes you can see are for the coolant ports. 




To take off the exhaust was one entire day.
