HEADER GASKETS
 

WHAT ARE THE BEST TYPE OF HEADER GASKETS TO USE, FOR DAILY DRIVER, BUT A FARELY HIGH HP? I HEARD THAT COPPER WAS BEST.

In my opinion copper are a waiste of money. I bought two set off ultra seal Mr gasket and double them up on each side. That worked good for me. Good luck.

I tried afew types with my piece of *** MAC shorties!!! Those things are JUNK, but any who,.. Doubling them up works some time, but I would just get a set of 'good' gaskets.. Doubling up didn't work well for me so I bought a set from http://www.summitracing.com.. I think they where made by Percy or something like that, but they where a little pricy. About $39 I think... Justlook around on the site - Headers are a pain in the a$$ - do it right the first time or do it again http://www.mustangworks.com/interact...oard/smile.gif

Fel-Pro 1415 is a great header gasket for a street car. Have heard good things about the Ultra Seals also. I run the 1415 with no probs at all.

Check the headers and make sure that they are level where the mate with the head (heh, heh,i said mate). I have MACs and I had to take them to a machine shop because they were tweaked. Try lock tite if you decide not to get Stage 8. 79stang is right. Do it right or do it again, and agai and......
