Is the stock exhaust manifold gasket and header gasket different? I was looking at the kit i got today and it looks like the gasket is too small for the headers, and I sure as hell dont want exhaust leaks!

So, if it is true, which I am assuming it is, what material/brand header gasket is best?

thanks.

foxes cam stock w/ headers and the gaskets should be the same. I believe the consensus is that Fel Pro 10112's are the way to go

Fel-Pro 1415's are good gaskets too. I switched to them after blowing out other gaskets, haven't had a problem since.
