header gaskets

[stevexr7sc]

I have to replace the gaskets from the Kooks headers and need to know what what type of gaskets to replace them with, copper or Fel-pro or ?

Steve,

I use the Fel-Pro ones.

Why are you replacing them?

I've reused mine like 10x already. Never leaked once.

They are permanently stuck to the head now. ;)

I like the tri-metal ones the 99+ stangs use, same style as the new head gaskets, they don't seem to fit perfect form the factory, the tabs on the bottom of the gaskets hit the head, so I just cut those tabs off but other then that they are great re-usable gaskets. Can't go wrong with Felpro either, but the tri-metal ones won't stick to the heads :D

I have Fel-Pro's and mine are stuck to the head too. :D

I have to replace the gakets because of an exhausts leak and wanted something better than what I have on now. I think I will use the Fel-pro.

Thanks, Steve.
