Rebuilt engines
 

I’ve been searching for a new ride and I’m seeing a lot of cars claiming to have original, rebuilt engines. The one thing that makes me question their claim is quite a few appear to have untouched exhaust manifolds & bolts. Can you rebuild and engine without removing the exhaust manifolds? Why would you if so? By the way, I don’t know anything about engine rebuilding 😁

Thanks,

AS far as I know... You remove the exhaust manifolds when rebuilding all engines unless they are casted as part of the cylinder head. Just my 2 cents..

you mean bc they are all rusty and appear to be time-welded on? trust me, you can get those off and on looking just like that. :D doesnt mean the engine was or wasn't rebuilt, just means it doesn't necessarily point to one thing or another.
