![]() 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

![]() 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.

Try lock tite if you decide not to get Stage 8. 79stang is right. Do it right or do it again, and agai and......
