I should of just got a remflex gasket.
Permatex? On an exhaust gasket? That might work for a few minutes, but, that's all the longer its gonna last. It will burn out of there in short order. See if you can't find a better quality gasket locally. Do it right the first time.

Yeah that's what he's doing. But it isn't regular permatex, I forget what kind he said he'll put on if he has to.

Not sure. I guess i'll find out tonight so i'll keep you guys updated.

Shoulda just bought another damn gasket. I bought everything else accept that.. I never trust stuff like that, that comes from ebay.

Headers wouldn't fit up perfect either. He had to take some off of them to get them to fit.
