Can't seem to get the headers to seal, have tried 3 times, took the pony to an exhaust shop thinking I had a leak at the collectors, they sais it's the headers. I'm ready to give up and put the stock manifolds back on. Any sugestions, one shop told me to try double gasket the darn things. BBK Shorties, they say they are fine since I sent them back once, out of ideas.

I just got some high temp gasket maker and it sealed mine right up?

i have long tubes but the header on the driver side is leaking. Is there a way I can seal them up so they dont leak without taking everything apart?

Ive seen some mr.gasket header gaskets theyre about twice as thick (if not more) than the factory one.

Get some percey header gaskets, I gaurantee thats your problem.

I can get get to 4 of the bolts but 2 I dont think I can reach. Is there some type of flexable snake of something to get to the bolts to loosen the header and slide a gasket in?

However this wont solve the original posters problem because his is leaking by the collector.

i worked at advance a couple of years ago, and they had some metal collector gasket that people bought all the time, go try that
