Review on 🔧 Dorman 674-869 Exhaust Manifold Kit - Enhanced with Essential Gaskets and Hardware for Downpipe Compatibility with Various Models (OE FIX) by Shawn Welker

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I couldn't be happier with this

I installed this manifold kit on a 2008 Saab 9-7x with a 4.2L L6 engine. Couldn't be happier with it. I also bought a Dorman screw set and I'm glad I did. The spike kit that appears as something people buy with it isn't needed at all. I bought a set of studs to be on the safe side, thinking they could secure the manifold to the head in multiple places. The stud kit only fits onto the manifold outlet flange and the manifold kit comes with the three required studs. I really like the gasket that comes with the kit because all three layers are spot welded. The original was not spot welded and would have been difficult to install.

Pros
  • Exhaust and Emissions
Cons
  • No paint required
