    Ran over something, bent exhaust manifold!

    I've got a good one on the hoist right now. Allegedly a muffler fell off the a car and our Mirage ran it over on the freeway. I took a quick look and all looked good but muffler was a little low. Rev it up and it had a leak at the manifold. Tooka a closer look and it looks like the exhaust was pushed up and into the floor, when it was forced up the flange on the exhaust manifold was twisted! The bolts looked crooked before I unbolted it, but the flange is tweaked pretty good. Suprisingly so far all the exhaust bolts came out easily, I don't thing the manifold will come out so nicely so I'll just try to bend it back into place before trying to replace it.Attachment 15918Attachment 15919
