OK, I got the engine back in and I'm almost done, but I'm having trouble lining up the exhaust head pipes with their respective ports on the right. The left side essentially fell into place, but there's no way these four errant pipes will behave. It looks like I'm gonna have to disassemble the four pipes from the collector. Any thoughts here? Is this a common issue? Any tips on getting the head pipes from slipping away from where they insert into the collector? Spray with lubricant, like PB Blaster? Thanx steve
