    Soo my Exhaust Manifold one bolt broke which is the middle which is having a lil leak. I'm wondering could I put Exhaust Manifold fiberglass tape to seal the leak?

    Exactly which bolt is it? you can just find a bolt of similar threads and put her in there.

    The bushings on your control arms don't like heat
