Re: header leak, quality gaskets?
Well, I found that the header flange where it meets the head is not the highest quality. Using the old gasket, I could see where the air was getting by. With the news heads having such larger ports, the short comings of these headers are now being brought to my attention.
I put a new Fel pro on it for now, and used red RTV to help fill in where the header flange needed a little help. Let it set up over night and hoping to test fire it off this morning. Ryan
