Doughnut or Gasket used on Ex Manifolds?
#2
To be honest, I'm not completely sure on the T/A manifolds. It's easy enough to tell. If the manifold outlet has a metal tapered feature, no donut is used. If it has a flat surface with a counterbore, then one is used. The A-body cars did not use donuts. Other Olds cars did (my 67 Delta, for example, uses donuts).

If the outlet is straight down, usually with 3 bolts, it requires a donut. Most of the 70's with catalytic converters and definitely all the 80's Olds V8 used this configuration.
