Alright, my head gasket's getting a little weak, just wondering if I change my intake to a cobra intake (upper and lower) and replace the head gasket, am I going to need a special gasket? Anyone know of a good place to get one? My friend was tellin' me something like, buy the copper gasket, but I can hardly find head gaskets for stangs let alone a copper one...

If you are keeping the same heads, which I'm assuming are stock heads, why would you want a copper gasket? And what would changing to a different intake have to do with a head gasket??? Read to yourself what you posted, it just doesn't make any sense. Are you talking about the lower intake gaskets?
