Default exhaust gaskets..

So my 94 firebird has a reallly bad exhaust leak on the drivers side, its comeing right from where the header meets the head, now i have kooks headers and i dont know where to get gaskets, do i just use stock gaskets? Or aftermarket ones, and where do i get them from?


I bought the car with longtubes already on it, so idk what kind of gasket is even on there.

Go with the Felpro 1406s. I've used several sets for 10 years now without one leak.

I've actually had the best luck with getting header gaskets at advanced auto parts. Just make sure to get header gaskets sometimes they have to order them

EDIT: Ram get to it before me thats the part number for the ones I'm talking about

I had a less than desirable flange on a previous set of BBK shorties that I had a hell of a time getting to seal up. First I tried the Mr. Gasket copper gaskets and they didn't even attempt to seal, then went to the Fel-Pros and they were a little better but still a little leak and then I tried the Mr. Gaskets that I linked above and they sealed up those horrible flanges quite nicely. I have ran them ever since and have not had an issue since so I am sold on these.
