1991 240sx: Exhaust Manifold gasket question

[vancouverbc]

Where the muffler pipe connects to the exhaust manifold. Are there 2 circular gaskets there?

How hard is it to remove the nuts that hold the muffler pipe to manifold?

There are two gaskets. The easiest way to remove the nuts is to use an acetylene torch; heat the nuts to a dull cherry red, then remove them immediately.

Thanks. I'll try with my micro jet solder gun to heat the bolt. If not, to the muffler shop I go.

I started building a tutorial on this. Edits welcome.
