When i did my gasket, I didn't actually need to. Make sure your SAI pipe isn't breached, like mine was:



This has happened to a few other people, and what they thought was there gasket blowing, turned out to be this, which is an easy 10 minute fix.

Thanks geoffr70..its definitley the exhaust manifold gasket leaking.
When n/s was removed gasket was just like a piece of single gauge paper stuff but did have a genuine gm number on it,so expect the original from build.
Surprised it lasted that long so fair bet the o/s is the same quality hence the blow or tick/tick .
