permaflex header gaskets, 3/8" wrench and put some ass into it. problem solved with the leaks.
LOL not with alumn heads.Plus i didnt use gaskets,i used the copper sealant stuff all the turbo guys use. peace

hmm.. is it that permitex stuff, the copper seal for like gaskets and whatnot? i've used that before but on top of a gasket..
i still torque mine good with aluminum heads. your not getting that much leverage with a small box wrench.
yes permitex is what i used. hummmm
yes permitex is what i used. hummmm
i used it on head gaskets for my quads to promote a good seal. i have never heard of it being used by itself, but i don't have a lot of experience with it.
i'd guess that's your problem for sure lol. i'm not a turbo guy though
I have heard of many people using only the permitex, but I know some people still use gaskets. I would try going with a gasket and permitex and see if it seals it.
Well i'll go out and make sure it's all tight.Just hoping for an easier way (maybe a spray or something) so i dont have to pull the DP to check everything.When we did my buddies turbo notch all we used was the copper sealant. peace
