Leaking Up Pipes

I have discovered my up pipes are leaking.

What are the recommended fixes? I kinda wanna have this done by friday before i put the tranny back in so its easier.

Best thing would be IH bellowed pipes, but I don't know if you can get them by Friday. Should be easy to work on the pipes with the trans out.

Remove up-pipes, clean, reinstall w/ new gaskets, install tranny.

Good to go, problem solved, till next time.

thos 4 bolts are most likely goping to break. Its then a pain to get the up pipe adapter off the turbo. It can be done. I just did one set with the trans out. I had t have thye broken bolts repaired.

So do the chevy gaskets work? Im gonna go out and start workin on it pretty soon, at least get it apart.

The bellowed pipes would probably be best though. How much do they cost average?

The chevy donuts work well. And they are ALOT cheaper than the bellowed pipes
