Title: Exhaust gaskets
Post by: 2savage4you on July 02, 2008, 10:36:37 AM

What is everybody using for the Bassetts OT exhaust gaskets? Ive seen alot of different types, the felpro's and copper gaskets and so on...... I just want to do it right the first time, so any help will be VERY much appreciated ;)

I use the coppers! They are reusable , and if you get a leak it won't burn out the gasket.

Ditto.  I JUST installed copper gaskets and OT headers on my ride.  I also used a very thin layer of copper RTV to fill any imperfections. O0

i used the 10.99 Fel Pro's from Auto Zone. I think they have some aluminum in them. I would probably not recommend those. They leak a little with my headers even with a little RTV and tightening the piss out of it.
