Title: header gaskets question
Post by: hypostang on April 27, 2010, 10:06:01 PM
I'm going to be installing my h-pipe and mustang headers in the next few days , but I have a question. I'm using the stock shorties ,
 Which gaskets should I use stock manifold gaskets (ms90000)  fel-pro or actual header gaskets ?

I use Percy's header gaskets.They are reusable and I've had zero issues with them between two engines,two sets of headers,and a lot of driving.

That's what I got for my turbo manifolds. They'll take the most abuse.

High temp copper RTV.  I use it on everything from the race car to my big block hauler. Excellent results and zero failures in the last 9-10 yrs since I started using it.
