Specific way to install exhuast mani gasket???
Just like it says above. Any tightening sequence or anything? I just got my new gasket today because my car is leaking exhuast between the turbo mani and the head. I want to get it installed right seeing as I couldn't find a gasket anywhere near me.

Done, but one of the holes did strip! 
I was tightening one of the bolts...when it just stopped getting harder to tighten. I unthreaded it and some of the block threads were on the bolt. Bolt was perfectly fine!
So, I went to a hardware store, bought a bolt with the same thread pattern but longer, and that with some washers got my manifold sealed up. Ghetto fabulous!

You're supposed to criss cross. Start from middle and work your way out ... (it's been awhile, but I think that's it)

I stripped out one of the bolts too...I got me a M8x1.25 tap and cleaned up the insde of the threads. Bolt went right in after that and got tight.
