Inspect the exhaust mounting

surfaces of the cylinder heads and

remove any rust or carbon, which

would prevent the TorqueTube

manifolds from sealing. Zip-tie cables

away from left-side Torque Tube as

shown in Figure 4.
Note: Do not use the factory exhaust

manifold gaskets upon reinstallation.

Banks TorqueTubes have a machined

surface and are designed to seal

without gaskets.

On the left engine block, remove

the factory knock sensor heatshield

located just below the exhaust ports

next to the oil filter. Install the Banks

knock sensor heatshield to the factory

using the factory hardware (see Figure

Apply a small amount of antiseize

on the threads of the supplied 8

mm manifold bolts. Lift the right

side TorqueTube manifold into place

and install one 8 mm bolt at the

front and rear of the TorqueTube to

hold in place. Install the remaining

8 mm manifold bolts to secure the

TorqueTube. Repeat this step for the

left side TorqueTube. Reinstall the

dipstick tube and o-ring. Reattach the

bracket to the engine block as shown

in Figure 2.

15.

Re-secure the bracket to the

alternator support using the bolt

previously removed. Re-install the spark

plug wires in their original locations.

Torque all manifold bolts to 26 ft-lbs.
