Stainless header gaskets???

[Robert Lone]

I can't seem to find any for a 4.3.

I'm running Brodix heads and my headers have never had gaskets. Only a thin film of copper RTV.

Now I have a leak and need the thinnest gaskets I can get my hands on.

Any Ideas?

TIA,

pull them off & reseal them with the copper. Never had A problum with mine.

Will the V-band flanges accomidate the extra thickness of the gaskets?

My headers were built for no gaskets...

I ended up putting one of those band clamps were the crossover pipe meets on my atr's,With the stock clamp and gaskets the pipes did pull apart one time.
