Edelbrock Exhaust Manifold Gaskets

I have Edelbrock Headers on the car when I purchased it and my gaskets that goes between the headers and manifold are blown out. Supposedly Edelbrock said they sold their header division and no longer stock them. Anyone know of someone or a vendor here that may stock some?

Thanks.

I have a set of brand new Kooks manifold gaskets sitting on my desk at home if you want them. Just cover shipping and they're yours.

I agree with this 100%, just stick with a new set of OEM gaskets and you will be good to go. The aftermarket gaskets just don't hold up nearly as well as the OEM gaskets.

The shop put oem gaskets on and they were blown out within 4 days. From my understanding their is some sort of lip. They are going to modify a new pair of gaskets and see if it works.
