3.1.6.2 Back Pressure
Exhaust back pressure shall not exceed 8.5 inches of Hg at rated speed and load. Lower
exhaust back pressure is desired from a performance and fuel economy standpoint.
3.1.6.3 Packaging
The vehicle assembly plant attaches the exhaust pipe to the manifold with the proper
fasteners and a gasket or seal. Exhaust manifold takedowns will be 2 or 3 fastener designs.
Consult GM application engineer.
The current exhaust manifolds are made from Nodular Iron with incorporated and
detachable heat shields.
Fasteners at the manifold takedown must be capable of withstanding temperatures up to
800°C and will require stainless steel or sermagard coated steel. The gasket/seal must also
withstand these temperatures and will require stainless steel or stainless steel with mica or
grafoil.
The heat shield provided on the exhaust manifold will reduce radiant heat to nearby critical
components and reduce or minimize the number of separate shields required by the vehicle.
