header gasket problems
i had my BBK headers installed almost a year ago. when i took it out in the spring and looked there were a couple bolts out, so i put them back in. Within about a month they came back out. So i took it to a shop to have them put back on right, but by this time my header gasket had already been ruined. I could hear the air leaking when i would get on it. So after they put the new gasket in and all new bolts i get it back and it runs smooth for a couple of days and less than a week has gone by and the leaking noise is back. All of my header bolts are still securly in thier place. Is this normal? what can i do to avoid having to get this gasket replaced all the time?
