i think i may have blown a header gasket
this morning on the way to work... i was driving and it sounded like the exhaust got louder...
when i popped the hood, it sounded like a loud knock... could this be a header or collector gasket...
thanks,
Chris

hey chris.
yea, quite possibly....
if you do replace it, get some copper or "dead soft" alum gaskets.
unlike the paper ones, these will never blow out.
