| Gasket for Exhaust manifold What type of gasket do most of you guys use on the exhaust manifolds? Also where do you get them at? Thanks.

| I never used any either with my stock headers. The Felpro 1400 however, is what most people use when they run a gasket. If you are a racer, and care about doing well, you might want to keep a spare set in your toolbox though in case you damage one. Just ask STH Chuck, 'cause that's what happened to him at the BPG Nats this year.

| Yeah I thought I read that from the factory they didn't use any gaskets. Do you guys just bolt them up or do u put any RTV on them?
