Yet another with manifold tick!

Well I just started developing the infamous manifold tick. Took a look the other day and I can see where its been leaking, at the rear of the passenger side. I've been researching and just have a few questions. Will I be able to get away with throwing on some felpro gaskets? Or do I need to go right ahead and replace the manifolds? If I just replace the gaskets will I need new studs? Thanks.

if you have broken studs then yes, but for the post part just changing the gasket should do, you can even doubble it up if it still leaks

Awesome thanks. Is it easy to get at through the wheel openings?

If you remove your fender liner it wont be that bad but they are a pain to do.
