Re: Header gaskets

I'm running over 30k miles w/o any header gaskets, no leaks, no prob.

I'm too lazy to look through the archives with my blindingly slow 26.4K
connection. So, here's my question. Who makes the best header gasket? I
pulled my headers today to get them ready to send to Jet Hot. The Cermacoat
coating has flaked off in a few places and I don't want them to rust. They
have been leaking since last summer when the Black Magic BM150 fan failed to
keep the engine cool and the temp shot up to about 240 on several occasions.
Once I got the headers out of the engine bay I took a look at the gaskets.
The drivers side was leaking the worst, but the passenger side was leaking
too. I liked the Mopar gaskets when I put them on, but I'd like something
that can handle a bit more heat.
