Best Header Gaskets
Who has the best header gaskets? I recently took off my headers and did notice a leak path on the gaskets, they were given to me with the Kooks headers and made from aluminum.

I like the fel-pro header gaskets the best.
And they get bonus points for being available everywhere. |

Love the LS motors. You can reuse most of the gaskets if they are in good shape. In a pinch ive even copper sprayed and reused head gaskets to make a race.

LS is good stuff, I came from owning a 67 camaro with a 350 and thats all I need to say! I love the way old muscle cars look but in the end of the day they are really junk compared to new stuff.
