250 exhaust leak

I have a 70 Chevy Panel (c10). It has a 250 six popper with what appears to be a warped exhaust manifold. A friend told me that there's a company that makes an extra thick manifold gasket for this problem. Does anyone know who? Thanks

If it is warped a machine shop should be able to plane it flat.I haven't heard of a thicker gasket but that doesn't mean they don't exist. Chris

Re: 250 exhaust leak

I would see if the local machine shop could mill a few thou off of it.It should be doable and will probably solve the problem permanately.
