Default Help to change manifold gaskets

Hi Guys,

I've just done 200 miles on my fresh recond engine, but i have blown the manifold paper gaskets. Maybe I was too slow to retorque them and the nuts got too loose. Anyway i have got a couple of replacement copper gaskets but am having trouble fitting them. I thought i could loosen the 4 x nuts and slide the manifolds out a wee bit and slide the old gasket out. But I think there are rings in there. Can someone confirm for me how to replace these gaskets please? Also this is RHD.. Don't know if it matters, but I might have to remove the carb to get passed the steering column.. Thank you in advance

Kindest regards and hope you all have a great xmas

Steve
