Which are the best sealing header flange gaskets for a Factory Cast Iron Head LA 360 Cubic Inch engine?

I use these on my turbo car... Little high temp silicon and I have NEVER had a leak with them.

I have great luck with the cheap white mr gasket ones. I have blown one out in about 18 years.

You might also look up some from a company called "Bison" if they are still around they make super heavy duty gaskets.

Thanks for the replies and suggestions. Anyone tried the SCE Copper embossed or Steel Fiber?

These are working great for me so far. Put a set on my 440 pickup, 4.3 gmc and my parent's 360 dakota. No problems with any of them.

I'm telling you those 3 layer soft aluminum ones I posted are hands down the best ones you can buy. The soft multi layer conforms to any warped flange you can throw at it.

The best gasket will not seal a warped flange.


A recommendation was made in another thread, read the 2nd reply

I have welded and sanded header flanges before to get a smooth flat surface.That being said the best header gasket I have found is the plain old blue fel-pro ones.
