I have loosened the headers on one side once to fix a small coolant leak. I have not had an exhaust leak in the 7 years of running the same set of gaskets. The car is a street driven car, but has been driven hard at times. Based upon my experience, I would recommend these gaskets to anyone who is considering using them.

Any thoughts about this on here?? I guess I should add here that I installed one side on my 440 and found them really different, the reason for my post here... Both sides have blown at one cylinder, using the gaskets that came with the original gasket kit, and I hope these last longer..

They do seal, however they also deteriorate (I didn't even run them that long) so when you take them off you need to scrape bits and pieces off. Maybe coating them with something might have helped with that. I would only use them if I knew I had a leak due to a lousy surface. If not, I prefer mr gasket ultra seals.

(hooker 2" super comps) I tried a few trciks and finally got a set of the Remflex. No more leak. It was either that or remove the header, run new beads, grind and install.

A bit of a mismatch at the floor of the port, not much shared sealing area between the 2 designs. Remflex sealed them together fine! Scott B. "I'm a self-made man...
