I need to replace my header gaskets this weekend and I was just wondering if I must only use the SLP gaskets? Or can I use another brand that I can get at a local auto shop?

 

I'm in the process of installing my SLP's (assuming you have the SLP 1-3/4" also?) and I'd have to say you need to use theirs. I have a set of the standard Felpros and they don't fit properly and block parts of the exhaust holes. I'm planning to order an extra set to keep on hand.

 

Felpro 1406s.

 

Ordering an extra set is a good idea. Because I need to get mine done this weekend. With no gaskets.

 

I used the Felpro 1406's with my 94 style SLP's and they worked just fine. They've been in for about 10k miles with no leaks too.

 

Thanks guys can I get them at any auto store?

 

Call around. Many auto stores will carry them. SLP gaskets are not one piece gaskets, where the Felpros are. Advise you also use 1" bolts rather than 3/4" bolts. JMHO

 

I found some at O'reillys, thanks for the quick replys.

 

Good to know, I'll take a look at those 1406's as well...that would sure beat installing them individually, I was NOT looking forward to that!
