[DML] exhaust manifold gaskets

[kevin creason <kcreason77@xxxxxxxxx>]

How long do the exhaust manifold gaskets last? Low,
high, average? Any ideas?
I replaced all mine 2.75 years ago, and I can hear a
little "beetling" on initial acceleration. It's not
bad yet, as you can't hear it standing out back
working the throttle spool, and a fellow car-nut
(mustang) passenger couldn't hear it all. But it is
enough to that I can hear it and I don't like it.

And why do the Delo's have this problem? Is it the
aluminum engine and the cast iron exhaust manifolds?
I saw on someone's site that there are stainless-steel
gaskets. Will those work any better? Will stainless
steel manifolds work better?
