I would appreciate any insight on:
- Using anti-seize / anti-gall on exhaust manifold bolts during reassembly?
- How about on brass fittings on Exhaust manifold or riser? Pipe dope? Teflon tape? Anti-seize?
Thanks.

Rob,anti seize will be fine on the bolts just check them for tightness once in awhile and pipe dope or tape is good for the fittings too. Hardly any pressure there anyway but you don't want any dripping.

Pipe dope or tape is not required on brass fittings. Brass is soft enough that the threads conform to whatever material it's threaded into.
