Disassembly:
(First, a disclaimer. This is the first car I've worked on(because I don't count putting mudflaps and adding windshield wiper fluid to a subaru as "working on a car," but, believe it or not, some people do). I'm going to screw up names of things, you'll probably want to correct things you see in pictures. I don't have all of the answers. But I'm learning, and having a blast doing it, and I love it.)
(Second disclaimer: I don't have adequate photos right now. I decided to do this after the process had begun, but will be documenting better during the process going forward)

So as mentioned in the first post, the exhaust troubles started last year, when I came down over a nasty speed bump. That is actually related to the suspension, but we'll get to that. So immediately when the front wheels were on the other side of the speed bump, and I gave it some gas to get the back over, as you do, I knew something was up. Super fun sound, and awesome performance. So I called my dad, and then continued to drive it before we put it away for the winter. This spring we went and pulled it out of storage, and knew that the first thing we should do was get the exhaust leak taken care of. Diagnosis was extremely straight forward, as you could fee air billowing out... about a 1/3 of the way down, where the twin pipes of the header merged into one, right as they merged into the mid pipe.

First step of disassembly should have been straightforward... removing the exhaust system from the original cast iron exhaust manifold. However, as we all knew would happen, one of the studs on the exhaust manifold snapped, which mean that the exhaust manifold needed to come off of the car. So then off came the carbs, air filters, and intake manifold just to get to the exhaust manifold.
After a little bit of frustration, we managed to get the manifold out, and my dad found a machinist who was able to remove all six studs, including the broken one, and sandblast it, for $10. Not bad. Once we got it home, we decided to paint it the original colour.

Here is the cleaned up, painted, exhaust manifold.

My dad also has connections through work to get onto the local airport, where he has access to some nice toys, including a sandblaster. Friday while I was at school he took the intake manifold over and got it cleaned up really nice, I wish I had pictures of it before.

As far as the exhaust itself goes, we went with the Tourist Trophy from Moss, which I'm going to try not to kill this time...

Now the reason why the exhaust is not installed yet is that while we had the engine block so exposed, we decided to replace some gaskets that we belive are the main cause of the oil that loves making it's way out. However, when we got the gaskets, they didn't work. Here's what I mean. The old gaskets are a darker red, under the new ones which I just laid on top for the pictures.

(Now I don't get more photos it seems, so to beat the system, I will post this, and reply to my own post!)
