    On the subject of those pesky exhaust manifold bolts I came across this kit

    S S Header Bolts Gaskets Nord Locks FOR Rover V8 TVR | eBay

    It should not be hard to source SS bolts and those nord lock washers so it may be an option as long as there is room for the washers

    I've never had a problem with the original flanged exhaust manifold bolts. The problem is the heat shield bolts/rivnuts .

    No lock washers.

    I've never heard/seen them coming loose or seizing.

    This time, I fitted brass bolts into the heat shields, not steel.

    Years ago, exhaust manifold nuts were always brass so they never seized.

    I'm just back from 4 days away in the Rangie and it ran well.
