Zac permatex makes a optimum max temperature silicone good to 750°, I’ve also use the ultra red, which is good to 650°, put it on both sides of your gasket between your head and your manifold, also on your header flanges or your turbo flange gaskets it works pretty good when you have compromised surfaces. Good luck thanks for making the video buddy.

If you haven't tried it yet, try the copper spray on gasket sealer. It will take up fine imperfections and make the gasket bond to the mating surfaces better. And it is super high temp rated. I always use it on exhaust manifold gaskets, turbo flange gaskets, those stupid flare or bell-shaped exhaust mating surfaces, donut gaskets, and some head gaskets. On paper or felt gaskets, I use either anaerobic sealant in a thin layer, or gasket shellac like the old Indian Head stuff. I think it's called aircraft gasket sealer now? Super sticky, stringy, and stinks like no other, but works AMAZINGLY well. The anaerobic sealant also works excellent for the already prone to leak GM 4.8/5.3 water pump mounting gasket/seal deals, and around big oil seals like wheel seals on big truck hubs.

BTW a flap disc can make very shallow, flat cuts on surfaces like that exhaust port. (They can also deglaze flywheels.) Every mechanic should have an oxy-acetylene torch but for some reason moderns (unafraid of cooking or grilling!) seem afraid of them. OA cuts, torch bends, shrinks, flame straightens beams, gouges, brazes, solders and as we see here washes off your nuts. I usually use longer torches for that sort reach/obstacle situation or use a heating tip if the cutting head is too bulky. While a good combo torch is ample for most mechanics, used high quality (need not be pretty) US-made torches go cheap and the longer your torch the further away your hands and torch body can be from the work.

Ive used the acetone and atf mix before. Works great on pistons and rings that hve rusted fast in the bores of stuck engines. What if you sandwich a piece of thin sheet metal in between 2 gaskets if its a massive gap there on number 6. Id almost recommend that if you plan to keep the truck a while, find a used head to swap or keep as a spare. I had a hard time finding one in pa for a 76, 2 valve e6. E7 and 4v e6 are still common for now. They are built in pa. Youd think it should be easy to find things like that here.

after watching a BUNCH of scraping videos, my unprofessional opinion is that you used too much dye. I'm not sure that a scraper is the only way to do it, it feels like some bullshit by those those who've never tried other methods or failed at other methods tbh. material removal is material removal, now, it may be that a scraper can do it in a more controllable way but I think it would be faster to do it with angle grinders or whatever.
