finally going to do headers, which gaskets?
finally going to do headers, which gaskets? i know alot of people reuse their stock gaskets with luck. but if i already have everything off im going to put on a fresh gasket. should i pick up another set of gm gaskets or what other brand do you guys recommend? i dont want to have to **** around with leaks. i dont have the time, money or patience and need it done right the first time. thanks!
I used FelPro gaskets. But I've got some Pacesetter gaskets that came with my headers if somehow you need new gaskets.
So far I have no leaks, my friend used the Pacesetter gaskets and has had to tighten the bolts a couple more times than me.

I ended up using the P.S gaskets to make smaller gaskets for my egr piping 
I went with the felpro gaskets. No leaks and i havent had to retighten the header bolts since i put them on.

Fel Pro coppers. my Mac mids came with real good copper gaskets already but i got the fel pros to call is safe. over a month and no leaks at all. plus the felpro kit i got came with real nice lock washers that help keep everything tight

i had copper gaskets and they leaked pretty bad on multiple ports. i tend to steer clear of copper gaskets unless i'm putting them on a purely dragstrip-car. so, i was lazy and went with the supplied P.S. gaskets and i've had no problems after 2 years. they are typical asbestos gaskets which always prove worthy. remember, gaskets only work if you keep your bolts tight...

I used the copper gaskets that came with my macs..they have been great with no leaks at all. DON'T USE THE GASKETS THAT COME WITH THE PACESETTERS THEY ARE GARBAGE CAN
