1984 Honda Civic 4 cyl Front Wheel Drive Manual Alot miles

I bought the car for $100 and i guess they hit a tree with it. It busted the bolts inside the exuast manifold and head im not sure about the head part tho. So the exuast manifold is setting about 1/2 an inch of the head and i know im burning exuast valves so how could i close up the gap without tearing the car apart and with out puttin too much money into this piece???????

Hi there, You will have to remove the manifold and check for bent or broken studs, replace any faulty ones and replace the gasket, check that the manifold is not cracked and that the engine pipe is not bent.
