Default Header Gaskets?

Hey guys i have a 2002 3.8 and i just purchased the long tube headers that mac has for them and i need Header gaskets. but im having problems finding them. mac says that you can just use stock replacement gaskets but i believe that they are two thin and that a thicker header gasket it needed. if anyone can inform me of where i can get some please let me know. its something that i need quick cause i need to install these headers within the next few days.

Yep, you'll reuse your stock gaskets, and if those are dead in the water, then a local muffler shop should have some as a quick replacement.

I was gonna say the same thing. Mr Gasket makes sheets of header gasket material. You can get either single thickness, or double thickness.
