will factory GM gaskets work with jet hot LTs? I used the ones that came with the headers and they burned through in 2 days.

 

felpro 1406

 

I second that. Quality gaskets.

 

I dont know if the 1406's he suggested are copper or not but if you dont want to replace them ever again go with copper or aluminum.

 

yes but i have some gm gaskets sitting here and i want to know if they will work for now...

 

OEM gaskets will work fine.

 

I used SCE copper gaskets. One very very small leak that you can't see. They work great.

 

I have copper.. No leaks here!

 

i used percy's "dead soft" aluminum gaskets they work great and they are reuseable

 

i got to looking at the oem gaskets and the holes are in the wrong place on the outside of the gasket.... can i just drill 2 holes in it to make it work with my jet-hot headers?

 

what are the gaskets that come with the jet-hot lt's when you order them from Jet-hot?

 

crappy paper gaskets

 

I will strongly suggest the percy's "dead soft" aluminum gaskets from summit,

Just wait and get theys overnighted and you wont be sorry

"if they dont work ill bythem back from you....

 

From my research, guys have the least problems with copper gaskets. A lot of guys recommend the GM stock gaskets for MAC's, don't know if it would be different for LT's

Plus, I don't see how holes could be in the wrong place. The bolt holes can't move in the heads, so either the holes are in the wrong place on the headers, or I'm mis-understanding you. The GM gaskets match up to the current bolt holes on the heads right?

there is an extra set of holes in the heads...
