1 Fast SS Posted January 9, 2007 Report Share Posted January 9, 2007 I'll have my pacesetters in a couple of days, and I was wondering about the gaskets. My truck only has 8000 miles on it. What would you guys do? Plus I'm going to order some ARP bolts too. Use the olds ones or Buy new OEM's Terry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thomp62301 Posted January 9, 2007 Report Share Posted January 9, 2007 the gaskets are reusuable, however it is cheap insurance to replace them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rivierakid55 Posted January 9, 2007 Report Share Posted January 9, 2007 copper gaskets are mandatory in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
04CHASE Posted January 9, 2007 Report Share Posted January 9, 2007 the oem gaskets are about the best your going to get, copper is nice but not reusable. i have never had a probl;em with the stock ones . and ive taken and replaced headeres about 10 times. i think i paid no more thna 20 bucks or so from the dealer.

Red03SillSS Posted January 9, 2007 Report Share Posted January 9, 2007 My Pacesetters came with a set of copper gaskets. Get some coppertone sealant or something like that and your good to go, no leakes. I dont see with they would have to be reusable, unless your planning on taking the off and on and off and on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H8R Posted January 10, 2007 Report Share Posted January 10, 2007 Stock gets my vots they are MLS and can be tigtened with out blowing out the gasket . They also help with a header flanges that may not be true! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1 Fast SS Posted January 11, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2007 I stopped at my ocal dealer today and picked up some OEM's. Price wasn't bad, $14.50 each. The tech said the stockers are much better because they won't blow out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
