I have seen worse and saved them , Them old stud- bolts will come out with heat on the side of the manifold just don't try and rush the job . ya can either use a flat file or have a machine shop take a light cut to clean up , then install the exhaust but do not tighten it down just yet mount it to the head with NO gskts . and snug it down then thighten up the exhaust to intake then remove take it back to the amchine shop and have them take a truing cut off the face so everything is even and put her on and tighten it down to 35 ft. lbs warm it up and rethighten again and keep doing this as it takes a bit for everything to seat in . also get some NEW THICK flate washers at times they are hard to find and at times i have had to have them made from bar stock to get them thick enough.
