Exhaust Headers

Help,

I am currently using the standard RV8 exhaust gaskets to seal my S.S. headers to the block and have problems with leaks (sounds awful) especially under load. Has anyone got suggestions of how to ensure the headers seal properly?

Thanks

Mal

High performance gaskets from any of the recognised RV8 tuners + Red Hermetite & you won't have anymore trouble.

Re: Exhaust Headers

I'm gonna try that. My car sounds as though there is an exhaust manifold gasket blowing, but I cannot trace one.
Cheers Richard.
