Default Header gaskets
Ok guys I need to know what's the best header gasket for the LT1 headers. We are wanting to include the gaskets with the headers so I need to know which gaskets would be the best ones to include with the headers.

On both LS and LT cars I have had very good luck with the factory metal gaskets, even reusing them.
