Default exhaust ????

The flange on my front eexhaust header is not flush against the motor. I tried tightening both nuts but they seem tight. Any thoughts on weather this is ok???? Thanks

any work done on it lately? kind of weird to work loose to where it's not flush but the nuts be tight. My guess would be it was put on lopsided. I'd take it off and reinstall it to see if you can get it flush.

most likely it will be fine. There will be some to tell you they replace the gasket whenever they pull the exhaust. I do this as well, but if you just pull the flange and not the pipe then you should be fine.
