Default Kooks Headers

Hello, so i plan on purchasing a pair of kooks headers from a member. He said its stepped style, what does that mean? Also if i buy these headers should they come with gaskets or anything like that? Thanks

Default gaskits to use

The GM gaskits work the best. I have never had a leak out of them.
