us the polyurethane motor mounts...many sponsors sell them. I used the gaskets provided by ARH so I would think kooks are ok to use. I have not had a problem with them.
make sure you do the mounts first then the headers.....they are kinda tricky to get to.
good luck

Those felt gaskets are garbage!
Reuse the multi layered steel stock ones if they're in good shape or get new stock gaskets. I guarantee you'll be pulling the headers off again soon to replace the gaskets if you don't.
