Im getting Lont tubes soon, and was wondering since i never had an exhaust with the stock manifolds, if the stock 3 layer copper gaskets fit them???

iam not sure what i just typed i just got off work

iam not sure if the stock gasket is the same size as the longtubes, if you buy them brand new they should come with gaskets if that helps.

Get the Fel Pro 1415's & don't look back.


If you buy the headers new, they will probably come with gaskets. My shorty's came with paper gaskets .... and MAC LT's usually come with copper gaskets (sometimes leak). Ditch 'em & get the Fel Pro's.

Which one's you gettin'?
