    you know...... i usually dont have any header gasket issues unless the flange is warped or head is warped for that matter...... starting to wonder if there is an issue with your header :thinking:

    Stock gasket from the dealer should work just fine,if you have tube headers I would use the LC one.
    Neither way you should use a quality product!!:cool:

    I hope that is not the case.:doah: Just got done working on it and used a extra Fel-Pro gasket I had laying around. I also noticed one of the bolts were loose. Drove it around and tightened the nuts down again. So far so good. . . How do you check if the head/header is warped?
