header gasket
« on: April 20, 2007, 11:16:12 AM »
Hey i have what looks to be a Tri-Y header, and the gasket it destoryed on it.
I need to get a new one, Does anyone know if i have to get a Tri-Y gasket or will other ones work.  I noticed that some were coming with round port gaskets, and other square.  I know i need the square port, but why are they selling round if there square?

Thanks

Dont know why they are selling round port gaskets.  Just get a stock gasket from advanced auto or similar store.  Just make sure it has square ports before u pay for it.

Some of the aftermarket headers don't have the ends of the pipes squared off.
