  • Exhaust gasket question.

    Quick question... can a header be installed using the stock exhaust manifold gasket? Can the gasket be reused?

    Thanks

    I have reused my exhaust gasket (stock components) and had to torque the three 14mm bolts a little more than I did when it was a new gasket, and it doesn't leak...
