Dear Tiger Gurus,
I was enjoying the Monterey weather this weekend and chasing down porsches when 
the engine started sounding rough. I short shifted home and popped the boot. 
Low and behold my exhaust manifold had ejected a number of bolts. So much for 
bolts being seized on the manifold. Anyway, I suspect I need to replace the 
gasket and bolts. So some questions for the gurus:

1) Is it possible to change the gasket with the engine in situ?
2) Any tricks in getting things 'just right'?
3) What are the bolts to be torqued to?

Thanks for all your advice on advance.
Rob
