Exhaust pipe to manifold
Any advice on getting a good seal between the exhaust downpipe and standard exhaust manifold on a standard 998?

Thoroughly clean joint, dumdum paste and a new clamp was the preferred method back in the day.

Don't forget to put a jack under the exhaust to push it right up onto the manifold.
